Yes chickens eat pests. I have seen my chickens catch and eat mice, insects, and frogs. They will even chase each other around to try to steal their treat from each other. I have even heard of chickens eating small snakes.

Yes. Caterpillars are on the menu for chickens but they are selective as to which ones they will eat. Apparently some of the species of caterpillars are fowl tasting.

How much does a regular chicken egg way?

A regular chicken egg can approximately hold around 4 lbs. Not much, but it is depending on the chicken and it's health about how the egg shell will produce. Some chickens don't get enough rocks or egg shells to eat and they may lay an egg without a shell. Happened with me before and I learned that they need to eat small rocks and/or crushed egg shells that were heated. If they get enough of these, the shell will come out perfect. :) Hope this helps...
