Re: [CHICKENS-101] beetles?

 

If the bug isn't safe to eat, the chicken will generally not eat it.  We have had chickens reject potato bugs and tent caterpillars.  They love tomato hornworms, though.

Are all beetles safe for chickens to eat?
Attached is a picture of a 'new to me' beetle that has invaded our tomato plants this year. Does anyone know what it is? Can I collect them and give them to my Ladies?
