Help identify this worm! (UPDATED with fecal float photos)

I would absolutely, definitely not throw antibiotics at them just in case. You'd have to know what you're treating, otherwise you can cause more problems than you solve.
Also metronidazole is not only not labeled for poultry, but it is specifically illegal to use in poultry. It's unsafe in a food animal, especially one you are going to eat the meat or eggs from.

I think if they are acting normal I'd not freak out and just watch them. You can feed them probiotics (plain yogurt), it wouldn't hurt.
 
My turkey poult pooped out a live worm! It was squirming around. Can anyone identify this worm? I already filled their waterers with Wazine because that was all I had.

The turkey just had a fecal float last week but there were no sign of worms in the test???

UPDATE: new fecal float photos
It looks similar to a tapeworm segment although Id expect it to be more tapered at the end. But if chicken tapeworms are different then Im waaay off base. Lol
