I'd like to plant vining flowers and veggies around my chicken run, which has a plastic mesh fence, perfect for vines to crawl up.
But sweet peas are poisonous. Do you think the chickens would eat sweet pea vines? I'm also considering edible peas, but would they destroy the vines, even if the vines are planted on the side of the fence that is outside their run?
I'm also considering morning glories, but once again they are considered poisonous.
I have read that chickens pretty much stay away from plants that are bad for them.
What do you think? It's about time to get the sweet peas/edible peas in the ground.
