Please help. We got this chick 4 days ago and this is what her poop looks like. We’ve raised chicks before and never seen poop like this. Is it a worm? Doesn’t appear to be moving and I’ve seen her poop like this 4 times now.
 
You know, the more I think about it, and I think about it a lot cuz it is gross .. ( just joking) - all my little chicks this spring were in pine shavings so I could not see each individual poop. BUT- when I cleaned the dry poop from the shavings it was mostly little squiggles like that. Not as long, probably because it was broken or stepped on. Just keep an eye on her and make sure she is getting plenty of water and food. If she starts being extremely lethargic or not eating/drinking - that is something to worry about.
 
im not an expert but looks like a worm to me . i would like tp get more input from folks on here. you have to be very carefuk what you give a little chick. you could try outting a small amt of vinegar in water until you get more in put
