...especially if it is still moving.
After watching these marvelous birds for a few years, I have no doubt that they are the direct descendants of the Velociraptor.

By "organic" I meant non-meat stuff.
Anything meat based, or greasy doesn't go in our compost,
but the chickens do a good job on that stuff.
They absolutely LOVE leftover pasta.

We don't feed our chickens anything made with chicken,
or cooked in a chicken broth. We love Chicken Alfredo with Broccoli,
but there is usually none left over so we don't have to worry about that one.

We won't give the chickens bad potatoes, or anything else that goes bad.
They will usually leave the bigger pieces of lettuce and cabbages, nut shells, onion, Melon rinds,
and don't seem to like Broccoli, Cauliflower, or Asparagus,
and some cereals.
If they won't eat a particular cereal, we question whether WE should be eating it.
