Is there such thing as TOO MUCH protein for chickens??

[BDutch]

You'd need to assess their diet and calculate according to what you're feeding - you already know their feed is 20%. Dried BFSL are something like 35-45% protein. An egg is something like 12% protein. And so on.

In general we are talking about dry chicken food when we discuss protein levels. Chicken feed from the shop goes from around 12% - 22% proteins.

It’s not helping to compare the numbers of dry and wet food like this.
Made me wonder about protein level of dried eggs.

From Cookbook Gostorgizdat (1960) indicated that 278 g of egg powder can be placed back on the nutritional value of 1 kg of fresh eggs. So in fact about the same level as the dried larvae.

It's incredibly hard to feed a chicken too much protein so don't worry about it. They'll be fine.

That's great to hear! Thank you!

OP specified: I love treating my girls to snacks like scrambled eggs with herbs or Black Soldier Fly larvae

Dried eggs weren't mentioned so I'm not sure why it's more helpful to look at dried vs. cooked.
