So, I plucked it off, hooked the fence back up, and took the tomato worm
and a grasshopper I had found earlier to the chicken pen. They were all
sleeping, but my son's favorite chicken (the only one old enough to lay)
was only too willing to grab the grasshopper out of my fingers. After
that, I gave her the tomato worm. She had a bit of a rough time with
it. :-)
Yeh for the hen!
I found my first tomato hornworm of the season on a Devil's Tongue
Pepper, but it made me smile. It was covered in tiny white wasp
larvae.
