Anyone feed tomato cutworms to their ducks?

Gee whiz, these things are as big as my thumb! (yeah, I don't have really big thumbs, but I'm the one picking them off the tomatoes).

Thought of tossing them to the ducks. But are they safe?

I was concerned not only about toxicity, but, mercy, choking!!!! I don't know if I can watch, except I want to make sure - well, how do I say this in polite company? - everything goes down the hatch okay.

Like when they first starting eating the 3 and 4 inch long slugs. shudder.

Mine love them and cabbage worms. Also feed the gigantic grubs from the compost.

Mine found a huge grasshopper the other day-- I barely had time to see what it was before 4 of them grabbed him... I believe in the Middle Ages, it was called "Drawn and Quartered"

My chickens do that with the frogs they find around the yard. Part of me feels bad for the frog but it's just so darn hilarious to watch.
