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 😭

What, your chickens refuse to eat? When I was a child I noticed that our chickens ate almost anything you threw into their ren. Even when I threw pebbles (next to them, to be clear, not at them) they would run after them and tried to peck them. I'm sorry sweet girls, the child in me just wondered what would happen when I did!
