    Hi,

    I have to pull out all my tomato plants. We are moving the flower beds. Can I feed the green tomatoes to the chickens? Also, I just gave them the leaves from the cucumber plants. Is that OK? (I can go take it out)

    Thanks!

    The green tomatoes should be much appreciated, but why not save them for the Hoomans?

    Our ducks got into our garden (when we had one) and ate the tomatoes off the plant, green.
