Correct. Do not feed chickens tomato leaves or green fruits, onion, raw eggs, avocado, rhubarb, butter, apple seeds or stone fruit (pits), chocolate, citrus, raw chicken (we know!), uncooked rice, uncooked potato, caffeine (including coffee grounds), dried beans, eggplant leaves, and more. Bread should be fed in moderation as it contains nearly no nutritional value. Same with pasta.
And when it comes to scratch, remember it’s not a whole meal! Simply a collection of cracked grains, it does not have a complete balance of any of the nutrients a chicken needs to live. It should only be thrown out as an occasional treat for the birds.
