Anna-I just came across your old post about the ragweed forest that your chickens seemed to enjoy (2011, I know, I know)...while I was searching for info on the giant ragweed. You may have already found this out but apparently this type of ragweed produces a very nutritious seed (47% protein) and the plants can be cut and composted or sheet composted and are supposed to be good compost activators. What a huge amount of biomass! Anyways...just passing on the trivia. Barbara Simmons
