Lupins and chickens

[lincolnlad]

Hi all just wondered if i could ask some advice, we already have chickens that are ex battery hens, but what we are enquiring about is that we have just took over a second allotment, that is overgorwn with grass and lupins, we intend to move the chickens from where they are to the new allotty, but the dillemma we have is the lupins, are the chickens able to scratch at them and eat them or are they poisonous to them, or do i have to dig them all out, any advice will help cheers guys.

they're on this list of toxic plants http://www.poultryhelp.com/toxic1.html

I always say; if in doubt, dig it out!
