    Teeny tiny white worms

    Yes. The tiny things were maggots that were from the roosting tray. I isolated the hen and she immediately pooped in the crate. It was diarrhea and it had 1/2 “ white worms “swimming” in the diarrhea. I did not find any evidence of fly strike. So I believe the fly larvae is a separate issue
