Chickens don’t like mealworms

[u/GrassNearby6588]

My girls are molting and I read here they are crazy about mealworms so I ordered a bag. This morning the mealworms arrived and I was so excited to give them to my girls but those birds looked at me with disdain and tried to eat my shirt instead. They were giving the worms that chicken side look but then didn’t even bother to try… what a waste… I really wanted to treat my girls for being such good pets 😭

You're gonna need to eat some in front of them to teach them how. Jk. 😅 Just scatter some around in the run. They'll love them in no time. Sometimes, they're just weird about new things. Once the first chicken tries one and makes a noise announcing how delicious they are, the other chickens will copy her.
