1. don't feed too many because they eat tomato plant which are poisonous and thus could possibly poison your chickens but you can feed em' in moderation .
2. keeping a couple ain't gonna change much and they are very interesting to watch and see em' cacoon under ground .

Tried to past a picture from Google. It's a sphinx moth. Seems not to want to show.

So, my husband just left our 4th of July get-together. Wanted to make sure the chickens were OK before the heavy rains come. Of course, it is his in-laws, but they like to pretend they don't like chickens around the guys. I appreciate it, though!

When they hover above the flowers they kinda look like humming birds but then you realize it's a moth...
Kinda cool what a big green caterpillar turns into .
Wild blueberries are ripening taste a million times better than store bought!

I've seen sphinx moths. They're really cool. Hmmm... do I prefer a warm sun ripened tomato, or the pleasure of watching the sphinx moth. Perhaps enjoy a bowl of warm cherry tomatoes while watching the moths hover. I can't tell you how often I've tried to convince people that they are not baby hummingbirds! (to no avail!!)
