Are mushrooms dangerous to livestock?

My chickens love to eat mushrooms. I've been researching and can't find anything saying it's okay or not. The chickens seem healthy, so I'm guessing these mushrooms aren't the death cup mushroom, aren't poisonous, or chickens are immune. Thanks in advance for any information.

I started researching. Found a web site listing over 350 fungi that grow in California, listing over 200 mushrooms. Good pictures and descriptions. I looked at about 100, and almost all were safe for humans. My guess now is mushrooms are generally safe for humans and livestock, with a few exceptions, which tend to kill in short order. I'll look at mushrooms a little closer now, but will continue to avoid picking them.
