Worms

[BobbieB7]

Cleaning poo box under roost bar today and found some kind of worm. Doesn’t seem to match ID of typical worms a chicken would get.
Posted a photo in local group and was told any insect could lay in the sand.
I couldn’t stop thinking about it and than a lightbulb went off! Could it be maggots from flystrike.
A couple weeks ago I found the same thing, but nothing in between.
It’s 8:43pm est I can’t pull my Ladies out now.
I’m so afraid what I’m gonna find or what you will tell me.
I feel horrible! I should’ve known when it happened 1st time.
I looked up treatment
Do these look like maggots ?
Please be kind. I’ve had more than 100 balls in the air.

Picture 4338 looks like there are some maggots in poop. Flies can lay eggs on the poo. Do you see any poopy vents or any wound on or under the vents? That is where to look for maggot larvae.

Definitely maggots.
