Went down to feed the kids this morning and found in one of the 5 water stations about 10 fine red coloured worms. I would describe them as being about 5mm long, thin as a hair, red in colour and move in the water with a "leech" like motion. The look similar to the bloodworms I feed my tropical fish. There was a bit of bird poop in the container (as is normal) as well. Needless to say out comes the Baycox and Moxi plus tomorrow.
Sorry cant get a photo because they are so small and my photographic skills leave a lot to be desired. Cage is dry, birds look fine.
Any ideas.
Thanks
Ken

Have seen these numerous times in standing water, don't know what they are. But as I haven't had them in the avairys, haven't bothered to find out.
