I live in Missouri and was wondering if any of you would happen to know what kind of caterpillar this is and if it's poisonous for chickens to eat or not?

    From what I can see online, it looks like one of the Tussock Moths, it would appear that there are loads of different ones, and some are poisonous, if that is how you describe it, so not sure if this is or not.

    This is a British site, I would suggest you try an American site if you want a more precise id.
