My friends female Jacksons that I'm watching this weekend has these strange little moving worms in the bottom of her cage, what are they? Could they be harmfull?

They may be fruit flies ?? Maybe @Andee can help?

Any thoughts Andee?

 

[Andee]

Look like fruit flies for sure

@Mkb123 Looks like black soldier fly larvae. It could be another type of maggot. Does she feed black soldier flies?

 

[Andee]

The other type it may be would be phorrid flies but they don't look right for it. It is not likely soldier flies considering how they breed.

She's never fed her any flys only crickets and worms

For some reason fruit flies just appear...

I will try when I get back but I'm not currently home right now, they are very small though

 

[kinyonga]

Smaller than a grain of rice?

They look the shape of BSFL, but I'm thinking some kind of maggot as mentioned. I know you're just Cham sitting, but that carpet should probably be removed. It's gotta be real funky if the misting is where it should be.
