I'm trying to find a list of herbs that are good to eat for chins. So far I know of

oregano
mint (i read it would also increase appetite, is that right?)
Camomille (same 'use' as mint?)
clover

I got a list from a site that said:
Agrimony, Borage, Chickweed, Cleavers, Coltsfoot, Comfrey, Cornsilk, Dandelion, Golden Rod, Kelp, Lemon Balm, Marshmallow, Melilot, Nettle, Parsley, Plantain, Raspberry Leaf, Red Clover Flower, Shepherd’s Purse and Yarrow

Any of them wrong?

Anything that is not mentionned and is also good?

I have feed my chin small bits of fresh parsley, mint and basil on different occasions. He goes nuts for the stuff and didnt have any adverse reactions to it. I just feed very very sparingly. But if it was up to him he'd eat the stuff till he puked, lol.
 
These herbs are safe to my knowledge, but you should feed them dry, not fresh :thumbs:
