Did it have a bunch of dirt in it to? Ours was filled with dirt and had little dirt pockets that had the grubs in them.We took down a tree that was dying and was loaded with grubs. The birds loved them.

I posted it, we'll see if we get an answer.Sounds about right. It was hard to tell since they curled up. Probably an inch in diameter. As I said, I have never seen ones this large!
Thanks. Its probably some type of beetle. Maybe a june bug?I posted it, we'll see if we get an answer.
We dont get many tomato worms but our folks do. They put them in containers for our birds to have as a treatI've seen grubs that big in trees that we've harvested for firewood. Just freakin huge! As long as my index finger and almost as big around. Yep, chickens love them. I even saw one of my Fayoumi hens running around with a huge hornworm that she found on one of my tomato plants. I always thought they would avoid those as they 'tasted bad' to birds but nope. She gleefully beat it into submission and then downed it like a big hot dog.
I've put pieces of wood that has been infiltrated with ants in their run also. They love to pick through the wood.
As for the composted dirt you found in your tree, I've mixed that with potting soil and planted flowers in it. They loved it also! It must be nutrient rich.
Seems too big for a june bug, but IDK<shrugs>Thanks. Its probably some type of beetle. Maybe a june bug?
