Chicks with worms?!

[peacehoneybee]

Hi all,

I’m currently raising my second batch of chicks and I have noticed what looks like worms in their droppings. Is it possible for newly hatched chicks to have worms? Not sure how to treat chicks since they are much smaller. I have attached photos.

It's not worms. It's tubular shed intestinal lining. Besides, they are too young to have worms if they are under 5 weeks old and not on soil.

Thank you all! I thought they were way too young but had never seen anything like this before!
