I had 3 chickens on my backyard microfarm that would eat an amazing amount of bugs! They even fought over, tore apart, and ate a baby rat that got into their roost pen! They were funny as they flapped while running across the yard when we came outside, jump/flying over obstacles. The fresh eggs were an excellent bonus too! My SO won't let me get any more though. I'm not sure how they would affect the bananas, but see them as a highly efficient pest eater with a daily gift or two.
