My hens love the rubharb and have eaten it all up this year ( I had it penned in before to keep dogs from peeing on it). While they haven't died, their eggs are extremely fragile and break under the weight of the hens since they've eaten the rhubarb. Rhubarb leaves have "oxylic acid" in it in high amounts. Same as spinach and chard, only in lesser amounts. Oxylic acid leaches calcium out of the body, which is why your teeth feel "raw" after eating spinach and/or chard, cooked or worse, raw. I hardely ever eat them, and prefer kale and collard greens as they don't have this problem. Kale and collards actually provide a digestable form of calcium. I'll be sure to keep my rhubarb penned in from now on! Geri A few bites shouldn't hurt the chicken. Usually, but not always, if a chicken takes a few bites from a plant that is bad for it, it will feel alittle ill and remember not to eat that one again. Actually the rhubarb might be the one in danger, as the leaves get large, the chickens will find it a nice place to get shade, hide under and begin to to scratch and peck under it until it is ruined.
