They are tapeworm segments. Buy Equimax equine paste at a feed store. Dosage is 0.03ml per pound of weight or for a 5lb bird give 0.15ml orally. Repeat dosing in 10-14 days.
No need to dose all your birds, just the one(s) that excrete tapeworm segments.
Worm the infected bird(s) prior to feeding them early in the morning, then feed the bird(s) 2 hours later. The wormer will be more effective killing the starving tapeworms.
