Have you tried to squish a piece of it? Is it hard or soft?
Maybe cut one open to see what's inside it?
Since you don't have any chickens there at present, you could wait a few days and see what happens--it may disappear, or there may be more of them, but either way you might learn something from what happens.
Right now, I could guess: small bits of foam packing material, some kind of chicken treat, bugs or their eggs, pollen or seeds from some plant, something pelleted that's meant to kill pests (pests being bugs, weeds, rodents, etc), a funny-shaped calcium supplement... the options are apparently endless.
Personally, I would not go spreading anything that kills "everything" until you are able to figure out what you've got. And anything that kill only some things, might not address this. (And the thought of trying to kill foam, or tree seeds, or rat poison
