The short answer is yes, chickens will eat bugs. However, bugs are not part of an industry type chicken's diet. Only yard birds or "free range" chicks have the opportunity to sample insects. If you have yard birds or a pet flock, I would feed them standard poultry feed and leave it to them to find insects to feed on while they are roaming.
