You can, however, I wouldn't make it a regular part of your burm's overall diet. Chicken diets result in some of the stinkiest and messiest stools you'll ever have to clean up. Chicken is a whole animal diet but their calcium load is much less than rodents. Personally, I would stick with rabbits, rats, etc.
