I was just cleaning out my chicken coop today and found this DISGUSTING thing in there:

WHAT IS THAT?!?! Please help guys!! My only guess is a shell-less egg that was smashed and then a fly egg was laid on it and the larvae is eating it? Is this a disease?
 
Yep! I have a couple relatively new layers but they have been laying for a few months now. They do have free choice calcium though.
Okay! Just monitor the situation. These things do happen as the girls' systems get up-and-running. If you see it repeatedly, though, it is cause for concern. Good luck!!
