The dark spots make it look like green june beetle larva, from what I can tell on google images. Hard to ID beetle grubs, as it turns out!
I'm actually curious where info can be found on Japanese beetles being toxic to chickens. I'm struggling to find anything about it online.
Edit: This was the best ID chart I could find, and you'd have to get pretty close to see the differences:
(I think these are the "raster" patterns (aka butt patterns) of each grub, haha)
Here's the page I got this from, might have some good info on identifying different kinds. https://extension.entm.purdue.edu/publications/E-271/E-271.html
maybe this one too: http://maria.fremlin.de/stagbeetles/larva-guide/
