i was thinking of planting raspberry bushes along a fenceline, on the outside of a chicken run. I was wondering if they will destroy the bushes or eat the leaves that they can access. i have little knowledge of chickens so far.

thanks.

Planting from what? Raspberry seeds? 5 gallon pots? How established are they?

They will also learn to jump and hover so they can eat berries.
 
Oooo, ah, that's how it starts. Later there's running and screaming and tiny ads.
