It wasn't too easy to take a picture of these hoppers, you can catch them easy, but they hop out of my net faster than I can snatch a picture, but I got oneIt's not an allergy, no, not in multiples. Besides, the people who are allergic to grasshoppers are mostly the ones who are allergic to shellfish- the exoskeletons are the same material.
Grasshoppers often have tapeworms, though, so uncooked ones aren't good food for anyone.
What kind of grasshopper? Can you catch a couple? Lubber grasshoppers in particular are poisonous. That's my bet, is either that the grasshoppers themselves are poisonous, or that their guts were full of a plant toxic to ducks. I can't imagine that eating too fast would make that many ducks that sick.
No clue what kind that is.
