[QUOTE="Beefy, post: 754580, member: 57"] are you having problems with them actually eating the flowers or just scratching them up and to bits? the only plants that my chickens are completely intolerant of are impatiens. anything else if i can put enough stuff around it until it grows to some size they will leave it alone. the biggest problem is them scratching for that pearlite or vermiculite or whatever the white foamy looking stuff in potting soil is. planting a lot of stuff close seems to help, one plant protects another. but mostly i just put a bunch of empty pots, or old bricks or broken concrete or bird cages or coke crates or plastic cake dishes or fallen limbs or whatever junk i have laying around over anything newly planted until it has time to establish. goodluck.
