Best Answer

Chickens will eat about anything they can get their beaks on. Of course the husk would have to be bite size, but my chickens are used to spread horse manure around the farm. Believe me, chickens are not choosy. Of course as a complete diet, I would not suggest corn silk and husks, but as a tasty treat, why not!

Yes, chickens love corn! My chickens can recognize the Del Monte sweet whole kernel corn can and get really excited to see it. I have even tried to take the same size and shape of can with chicken feed and they can tell the difference before you even get close to them. I have switched them around on different brands of corn but I think this seems to affect their egg productions, I guess it's the change in ingredient additives. Hope this helps!

Another answer: Chickens do love corn, but they shouldn't be fed exclusively corn, dry or cooked. It's very fattening, and good as a supplement to a regular diet, but you should take care if feeding it as a main source of nutrition.
