Berries as chicken feed?

[Ender Riens]

Dry grass as (large) trough feed feels like a cheaper yet more labor-intensive alternative to grain, which feels like a less-effort yet more expensive feed. Time is always the most limiting factor of increasing generation nevertheless, but berries might provide a more laborious option for feeding/breeding chickens for those willing to put in the effort, just like dry grass. Plus, it would give purpose to collecting berries beyond just eating. Portion size (and potentially berry type) could be used to fine-tune balance.

Thoughts?

I support any suggestions to make berries more useful so they don't evaporate in my cellar. I'm at the point where I have so many berries that I use them as bait to mass-capture fish, AND I make berry bread, AND I use the rot to make terra preta. I still want more options.
