Which breed is the best at eating bugs?? We have a horrible bug problem where I live and I've already started seeing ants crawling around 
I have given my chicks a worm and a beetle, but they weren't interested. Not sure if its because they are young, or if they will never be good bug eaters. Can i teach them to eat bugs? My yard is FULL of ants, beetles, and other assorted creepy crawlies, if I had some chickens that were good bug eaters they could seriously thrive and be fat off of eating nothing but bugs in my yard. I know Guineas are supposed to be great at that but I'm not sure if I want them since they are more 'wild'.
