@casportpony can you advise?

That does look abnormal. What are you feeding them? I see bits of corn and other grains which are harder for chicks this age to digest. Do you have access to chick starter crumbles?

Is your feed a whole grain feed? If so they must have grit on the side to digest the grains. Also a whole grain feed is similar to a kid at a buffet. They can pick and choose what they want to eat and what they don't want to. Usually with whole grain feed the vitamins and minerals are all contained in small pellets that often get left behind because what kid wants to eat their vegetables when they can just have dessert?

Careful, many of the pictures in that link labeled normal are abnormal.
