Howdy and Welcome to Backyard Chickens.

Happy to have you here with us. Enjoy your time here at BYC!
It appears to be black fly pupae, I could be wrong. Maybe some experts will be along shortly to identify.

Thanks for joining our community!

Likely from soldier flies or beetles.

Feed them to the hens!
