Daughter found a good sized pile today in nest box. Only 4 eggs laid so we can try to narrow it down. . .

One gal with a messy butt for a few weeks might be her not sure. Have 20. Followed her around abit and of she would NOT poop.

They are curling upwards and squirming with a pointy tip.

Read a few posts here it's the length of long grain rice, not tiny dots like cous cous (which would be tapeworm I have read here).

First worms so thanks for the assist!

Which worm?

There was a broken egg today yes and this nest box might have been abit messy for a few days but I thought I just changed this box out a week or 2 ago. There are tiny flies hopping out of the aspen. Great just great I don't want flystrike!
