I was cleaning my mini coop and found these gross worms. This is the area where the chickens sleep and there was a lot of poop there.
They were white, fat, and about half an inch long. Wriggled around a lot.
They weren't anywhere else in the coop.
I have 4 chickens in this coop. They are 9 week old pullets. I got them a week and a half ago from a farm (who in turn got them from a hatchery). I've been quarantine them in this coop before they join the main flock.
Chickens all seem fine.
Are these worms? Or maggots?
