Are those "worms" IN the poop or just on top of it?? My first thought was tapeworm also, but those would be all IN the poop. If they are just on the top of it then it could be maggots from flies!! In that case, you dont need to treat the chickens!!
Are these worms????

I would check another poop sample but it does look like tapeworm segments to me. Dogs and cats can also get tapeworms but whether or not they can get it from chickens I don't know.

I just witnessed one of my girls poop and I scooped it up and they are in the poop as well. They were moving and changing shape. Calling the vet to do a fecal sample. I am on the way to the vet and will report back.

Then that rules out maggots. The best. We anxiously await your next post. --jim
