How to Feed Potato Chips to Chickens

Chickens are omnivorous animals, meaning that they will eat both animal and vegetable foods. While a chicken shouldn't eat many of the foods that humans consume, some foods are acceptable. If you wish to feed potato chips to your chickens, you can break the chips up into bite-sized pieces.

      Break up the potato chips into small pieces. Larger pieces of potato chips can be a choking hazard for the chickens.

      Save the scrap chips in a dry location until you've accumulated a large enough portion that will feed the entire group of chickens. If you wish to feed the potato chips to your chickens immediately, buy enough bags of chips to serve all your chickens.

      Spread the chips on the floor or ground where the chickens feed. They will pick the chips up from the ground and begin to eat them when they are hungry. If you use a food trough to feed your chickens, fill it with the chips.
