greater angle-wing katydid, can chicks eat it?

Can 9 week old chicks eat a greater angle-wing katydid? It wacked into the run hardcloth and died, so I’m wondering if I can toss it in the run.

As long as it's fresh. They're a great source of protein for chickens. I feed katydids to mine whenever I find some.

Yep, katydids are safe for them to eat, so long as they've had access to grit.
