Is it worms or fly larvae?

Recommended Posts

We cleaned the girls out on Thursday & in the poo in the poo tray was lots of wriggly critters :shock::vom::vom::vom:

I can't find the Flubenvet a forum member kindly sold me, & so today I went to see my friend Reg from Ashtons Green Poultry (other breeders are available) & he gave me some powder that only needs to put into the water once & that will teat the worms with no egg withdrawal.

 

The girls were due to be wormed anyway as it was January when I last did them. But Reg did say it might not be worms, it could have been fly larvae :anxious: instead. This seems really feasible to me, as my girls are all well & laying like little troopers.

 

Anyone noticed fly larvae in the poo tray?

I really need to clean my hens out more than once a week in this hot weather now :whistle:

I'm a bad chicken mummy *slaps own wrists*
