    Mealworm and Heads

    Hi Y'all, I have been reading on here about mealworms. Some say the heads are bad for chicks' stomachs and then some don't say anything about them at all. What's everyone else's take on it? Am I supposed to pick the heads off of these things before I give them to my babies? Thanks in Advance
