With that said, there are some fears surrounding letting chickens eat cherries because they contain small amounts of cyanide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Chickens can eat cherries, but with some precautions. Remove the pits, as they contain cyanide, which is toxic to chickens. Offer cherries in moderation, as a treat alongside their regular diet. Too many can cause digestive upset due to their sugar content.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When introducing cherries to chickens, it&rsquo;s vital to start with small amounts. Think of it like dipping your toes in the water before diving in; it gives their digestive system time to adjust. Be mindful of the cherry stems and leaves too, as they can also be harmful if ingested in large quantities. Always provide clean, fresh water for your chickens, especially when offering new foods.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" src=\"https:\/\/pentagonpets.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/PP-Can-Chicken-Eat-Cherries.jpg\" alt=\"Cheries with stem in a wooden bowl\" class=\"wp-image-3970\" srcset=\"https:\/\/pentagonpets.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/PP-Can-Chicken-Eat-Cherries.jpg 640w, https:\/\/pentagonpets.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/PP-Can-Chicken-Eat-Cherries-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\"><\/noscript><img loading=\"eager\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns='http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg'%20viewBox='0%200%20640%20427'%3E%3Crect%20width='640'%20height='427'%20style='fill:%23e3e3e3'\/%3E%3C\/svg%3E\" alt=\"Cheries with stem in a wooden bowl\" class=\"wp-image-3970 eager-load\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/pentagonpets.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/PP-Can-Chicken-Eat-Cherries.jpg\" id=\"mv-trellis-img-1\" data-src=\"https:\/\/pentagonpets.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/PP-Can-Chicken-Eat-Cherries.jpg.webp\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/pentagonpets.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/PP-Can-Chicken-Eat-Cherries.jpg.webp 640w, https:\/\/pentagonpets.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/PP-Can-Chicken-Eat-Cherries-300x200.jpg.webp 300w\" data-svg=\"1\" data-trellis-processed=\"1\"><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>An interesting fact about chickens and cherries is that chickens have excellent color vision. They are drawn to bright colors, making red cherries an enticing treat for them. However, balance is key. Like a cherry on top of a sundae, cherries should only be a small part of a chicken&rsquo;s diet, enhancing their regular feed rather than replacing it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Chickens quite enjoy cherries, especially if they&rsquo;re served as a treat. It doesn&rsquo;t matter what kind of cherries you feed them, both sweet and tart are good enough. Although they&rsquo;re safe and nutritious, you should not feed your chickens only cherries. They need a balanced diet to grow healthy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Is It Safe for Chicken to Eat Cherries?

Giving them cherries is a good idea, as they are a nice treat when served chilled on a hot day. Yes, chickens appreciate cool refreshments too!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>It is safe for chickens to eat cherries, but precautions are necessary. Cherries should be pitted as the pits contain cyanide, which is toxic to chickens. Feed cherries in moderation to avoid digestive issues, and ensure they are part of a balanced diet, not a staple.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cherries, like many fruits, are high in natural sugars. While chickens enjoy them, too much sugar can lead to health problems, similar to overindulging in sweets for humans. It&rsquo;s best to treat cherries as an occasional snack. Also, be aware of moldy or spoiled cherries, as these can be harmful to chickens. Providing a variety of safe fruits and vegetables, along with their regular feed, ensures a well-rounded diet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What to Look Out for When Feeding Chicken With Cherries<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" src=\"https:\/\/pentagonpets.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/PP-Can-Chicken-Eat-Cherries-8.jpg\" alt=\"Magnifying glass with yes no puzzle pieces yellow background\" class=\"wp-image-3969\" srcset=\"https:\/\/pentagonpets.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/PP-Can-Chicken-Eat-Cherries-8.jpg 640w, https:\/\/pentagonpets.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/PP-Can-Chicken-Eat-Cherries-8-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\"><\/noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" src=\"https:\/\/pentagonpets.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/PP-Can-Chicken-Eat-Cherries-8.jpg.webp\" alt=\"Magnifying glass with yes no puzzle pieces yellow background\" class=\"wp-image-3969 lazyload\" srcset=\"https:\/\/pentagonpets.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/PP-Can-Chicken-Eat-Cherries-8.jpg.webp 640w, https:\/\/pentagonpets.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/PP-Can-Chicken-Eat-Cherries-8-300x200.jpg.webp 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/pentagonpets.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/PP-Can-Chicken-Eat-Cherries-8.jpg\" id=\"mv-trellis-img-3\" data-trellis-processed=\"1\"><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>As with any food, there are things to keep in mind when feeding your chickens cherries. They&rsquo;re not poisonous and something to keep away from your birds entirely, but moderation is always a good idea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Chickens enjoy cherries but try to avoid feeding them the pits and stems. These aren&rsquo;t truly problems, but the only important considerations. Though rare, pits can pose a choking risk and the stems, like the pits, can be a minor health risk.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For the most part, though, if you want to feed your chickens cherries, there&rsquo;s nothing stopping you. These fruits can help keep your chickens hydrated and happy during the summer, and you can even serve them frozen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As for the stems, chickens are actually smarter than most people expect and they&rsquo;ll likely eat the cherries and leave behind the stems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Can Chicken Each Cherries Pits?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" src=\"https:\/\/pentagonpets.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/PP-Can-Chicken-Eat-Cherries-6.jpg\" alt=\"cherries cut in half in a wooden bowl\" class=\"wp-image-3967\" srcset=\"https:\/\/pentagonpets.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/PP-Can-Chicken-Eat-Cherries-6.jpg 640w, https:\/\/pentagonpets.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/PP-Can-Chicken-Eat-Cherries-6-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\"><\/noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" src=\"https:\/\/pentagonpets.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/PP-Can-Chicken-Eat-Cherries-6.jpg.webp\" alt=\"cherries cut in half in a wooden bowl\" class=\"wp-image-3967 lazyload\" srcset=\"https:\/\/pentagonpets.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/PP-Can-Chicken-Eat-Cherries-6.jpg.webp 640w, https:\/\/pentagonpets.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/PP-Can-Chicken-Eat-Cherries-6-300x200.jpg.webp 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/pentagonpets.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/PP-Can-Chicken-Eat-Cherries-6.jpg\" id=\"mv-trellis-img-4\" data-trellis-processed=\"1\"><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Chicken farmers are quite divided when it comes to the pits of cherries. While many of them think it&rsquo;s absolutely fine to let chickens eat them, others are convinced this is a bad idea. Again, this is due to the fact that the pits contain very small amounts of cyanide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Chickens can eat cherry pits. The chickens aren&rsquo;t exposed to a lot of cyanide when they eat cherry pits because they don&rsquo;t contain enough cyanide to pose a risk. Of course, it&rsquo;s important that you keep moderation in mind and only feed your chickens a reasonable amount of cherries and their pits.&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some chicken farmers feel that it&rsquo;s best to just stay away from any food that could pose even the slightest risk. It&rsquo;s up to you to decide if you want to feed your chickens cherry pits.
