Chickens might eat slugs, but that's just a guess. There is a flatworm (Planaria genus) that I've seen in the Puna District, from around 19th and in Volcano, that is a predator. It eats African Snails (or maybe the eggs?) but it also eats earthworms. I'm not sure if it's a native species, but I don't think so. I don't know if it's known how they arrived. I got a photo of one posted at
