Wow you are very creative !! I gave my guys some beetles yesterday. They looked at them for awhile but then green and Edie tasted them and decided they were tasty. Today I gave my mom a pumpkin leaf with squash bugs on them. They stared at them for awhile then green and Edie tried them and they were gone in secondsJust because I'm kinda tickled with myself: For those of us whose chickens cannot forage nearly as much as we'd like and who have an abundance of grasshoppers, I created a jar top that allows for "stuffing" the critters in, but they cannot jump out. I cut a circle out of an old plastic file folder to fit the top of a canning jar and cut a cross-wise slit in it and screwed on the ring. It works really well. You can even put it down long enough to make a two-handed catch.![]()
