Baby Chicks with Worms

They are simply tubular chicken poops.
You stated that the chicks are acting normal; eating, drinking etc.
I dont see why it's necessary to give them Corid since they are acting normal.
However, if you think they need Corid, it wont hurt to give it to them since it's not an antibiotic.
Corid is a thiamine blocker, just dont give them anything that contains thiamine. You would be defeating the purpose of treating them with the Corid.
 
Thanks for your reply! This morning I saw some foamy poop too, which I have read is a bad sign.
I'm still thinking about what to do, if anything. Maybe I will only treat with Corid if they start showing any signs of distress. They are still very active cuties! So entertaining!
 
So I have had the same tubular chick poop. I figured it was just weird chick poop but this second time, upon closer examination, it would appear to be a worm since it won't break apart. My logic says that impossible, they are only 7 days old.
I do have one that is dealing with pasty butt. The first time I saw it I thought it most likely had to do with that. Could it be intestinal lining? Do I need to be worried? Once I cleaned her up she is eating better but I think I will be dealing with it longer. Is something wrong with this little chick? I hope not, this is the one I picked out to replace my Taco that passed last Sunday!
