Maggots are the larva of the common bluebottle fly and are bred on maggot farms. They are typically fed on the carcasses of fish, chicken or turkeys, and take a week or so to grow to full size. Large maggots are naturally white in colour, but are often coloured, usually by the breeders who add dyes to the food.
Supplied in pints our maggots are dead and will be shipped frozen.
