Can chickens eat tomato leaves?
If one of your chickens has already eaten this and you are worried, contact your veterinarian.
Why
Toxic to chickens. Potato and tomato foliage contains solanine, though the ripe fruit is a different matter. The foliage of tomato plants contains solanine, a compound that is poisonous to poultry. Even small amounts of the green leaves or stems can cause serious illness or death in chickens.
Watch out for
- green leaves
- stems
- unripe green fruit
