Hi! I have three chickens and a rooster and seven ducks and a drake! On the website I'm buying my mealworms from I have a choice of


2500 Dried mealworms


12500 Dried mealworms


25000 Dried mealworms

Which one should I get?

It depends how often you want to give them treats!
I have 6 hens, they are all crazy over these things.
I will give a small handful a day, or more if I am using them for training(like follow me, get in cage, stuff like that)
They have quite a bit of protein, and all chickens like bugs. Maybe sprinkle a cup or so
among them a day. It's entirely up to you. They are kind of expensive!!
Good luck in Bali, hope the Komodo Dragons won't eat your chickens, haha. Enjoy your new home.
