Yes, it's actually very good for them and is used as a natural wormer, a VERY powerful antibiotic, a cure for all kinds of infections - viral, fungal, AND bacterial, a cure and preventive for colds and flu, and many other uses. Garlic has huge potential as a medicine, both with people and pets.
Chickens can be fed garlic cloves either whole (if you are feeding one or two birds individually), or can be fed chopped garlic. It's good to soak and store the cloves in vinegar, or make garlic oil (be careful with oil though as it can invite botulism).
Chickens can eat just about anything. They particularly like leafy green vegetables like lettuce, and they love rice and seeds and are crazy about worms and insects. Chickens would eat pie.

No,not at all. Garlic has long been used as an anti biotic for both humans and livestock including chickens. Powdered garlic can be added to feed as a preventative tonic and to water to treat the whole flock for infection.

Garlic root left in the garden in the fall will gladly and safely be consumed by a wandering free range flock.
