Cocci? Or just loose droppings?

We have ten chicks about a week and a half old (Easter chicks). A few of them have had pretty loose poops since the beginning, but now they seem to be even more so. I am new to chicks, so I don't really know what is normal, but most of the others seem to have more solid droppings. They have been on medicated starter from the beginning, all are eating and drinking well, all seem active and growing, they don't appear over-heated or too cold. The only thing that seems a bit off is the loose droppings from a few of them. Should I worry? Let it be? Ask the vet for a fecal test?

Any advice for this paranoid first-timer would be very appreciated.
