Chicken food?




Before planting our crop for the fall, Jared noticed that half of a green pepper was gone and thought that that was weird. Then he looked closer at the plant to notice none other than a tomato horn worm. The closer he looked, the more seemed to appear. We found 3 large ones - the length of Jared's fingers. We thought we would attempt to offer them up as a sacrifice to the chickens but they just pecked them once and left them. They must not be very savory. Can you spot the worms?

!! Oh my!! those are LONG worms! crazy. We had some of those in our garden growing up. Just 1 year I think we had them - they were called hornworms bc they had a horn type looking things. ew
