Our 2 week old chick keeps shaking her head like something is tickling her nose or in her nose. She's been on vitamins and electrolytes since we got her and others; they eat fermented food once a day as well (not sure if that causes her poop to look like this). She is acting completely normal outside of shaking her head, she's been in the brooder. I was holding her and she pooped, this is what it looks like, is this normal? It kind of looks a little slimy to me in one area. Thank you, I hope she is okay.
 
Welcome To BYC

Can you post some photos of the poop, chicks, brooder?
A video of her actions may be helpful - upload video to youtube and provide a link.

You mention food once a day, do your chicks have access to feed and water free choice during waking hours?

What's the temps in your brooder?
