Is this a worm? Pics

[Suzanne S]

Cracked an egg and saw this. Very small. My chickens are not quite a year and a half old. Please help. If it is a worm, how specifically to treat? Thank you!

No, it's not a worm. It's a piece of chalaza.

Thanks. It’s shape and definition just freaked me out a little.
