Wait wait wait, the poo pick how many days is it since you did it last Sam?

Only takes 3/4 days in from my experience for the maggoty fly babies to hatch and start wriggling, they especially like corners of houses and right at the bottom of a pile of poop  :ohmy: With the weather being so nice they may have hatched sooner than normal :)
They are white and abut 1/2cm long if they are the same :)

Is it in the house or on the garden?

Sarah :)

Sarah it has been about 2 days for the poo pick!  I left it there if this makes sence to make sure there was no problem, ie make sure the worms were gone! 
You are right they are only tiny and white in colour.  They are about 2-3 cm long not as fat as maggots which it what made me think they were baby worms....  They are there in the poo in a morning in the coup right by where 5 of them sleep. 
Any ideas???????

 :lol:  glad it's been solved.  :D


Mmmm. those photos make you feel quit hungry  :unsure:

Is it worth putting one on the poo thread for reference. I wouldn't have thought of it.
