Is hemp safe if ingested?Updated 2 days ago
Hemp is a natural, non-toxic material and will not harm chickens if small amounts are ingested. Our hemp is not chemically treated. Chickens may naturally peck at it but if your flock seems especially interested in munching on their bedding or nesting pads, make sure you are offering them grit and foraging snacks to combat boredom or nutrient deficiency. Even though hemp bedding comes from the same family of plants as marijuana, it does not contain significant levels of the psychoactive elements found in cannabis plants.
