General Knowledge Can these locusts be harvested and dried for chicken food?

[Janssen]

Do you think there is a way to trap and harvest all of the locusts invading our country? Then dry and mill them for an additive to chicken feed?

@nedward @Ann @Alfred Opiyo what are your thoughts?

Normally Kienyeji hens on free range do scavenge on insects including grasshoppers and locusts, unless research/laboratory tests are done on them to disqualify them on if they're poisonous or little/no nutritive value. To me I believe they are as good the others being fed on naturally by free ranging chicken especially now that availability is overwhelming. #good protein source

Traps of nets can be used, I see they invade in millions making it easy to catch large swam at ago.

No poison at all. Can be good. Source of protein if well. Dried . Otherwise. Can be source. Of. Infection.
