Daisy dooo Posted September 30, 2020 Share Posted September 30, 2020 Hi all I am just wondering if I can feed my hens worms from a fishing tackle shop, as a treat now and then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cat tails Posted September 30, 2020 Share Posted September 30, 2020 Are they actually earth worms or are they maggots? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beantree Posted October 1, 2020 Share Posted October 1, 2020 None of our chickens eat worms Daisy, so perhaps they don't taste nice or they instinctively know they are bad for them? They love maggots though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cat tails Posted October 1, 2020 Share Posted October 1, 2020 Mine will fight over the odd garden earth worm that happens to wander into their run. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mullethunter Posted October 1, 2020 Share Posted October 1, 2020 Some of mine eat worms and others don’t. Different chickens definitely like to eat different things - just like people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
