    Black Soldier Fly Larvæ (BSFL) - when do wild BSFs start appearing in different areas?I

    Necroscopy - what do you think?

    We had a hen die fairly suddenly on us, unfortunately. We've had a few lately, in fact, though not all with similar symptoms or circumstance. This one, a leghorn about four months old and always on the small side, we noticed was a bit yellow around the eye (the skin around the eye, not the...
