    My chickens love worms, but sadly for them and happily for the worms, there are very few here. To suppliment – I make spaghetti – they think it's worms. One will grab a piece and run all over the yard like it's some big prize! All the others will chase and try to take it away. I have to make sure I make enough for everyone!

    He stood on it for a moment or two before he started chomping!

    Great series, Words! And Lois, I too look forward to seeing your chickens with spaghetti "worms!"

  14. BitzyMe April 4, 2008 at 2:04 am #

    That would be an absolute riot to watch.

    Now that really IS a worm. He was lucky finding that one. Didn't take him much to eat it! amazing viewpoint you had there… could almost see down his throat! Jane

    He looks fortunate not to choke on it! What a worm!

    Jane, he certainly made a meal of it! I stumbled on him just at the edge of a carpark and couldn't beleive my luck when he started eating. I think his interst in teh worm meant he didn't mind me getting in quite close.

    Sandalian, I'm sure he did!
