three week old chicks with worms

[RIR7jn]

We have four chicks we bought that seem to have worms. I noticed today what looked like a worm egg in some runny poop. If they do have worms, what can we can give them if the chicks are only about three weeks old? I've read you can put crushed garlic in their water. TIA!

I doubt it is possible for a 3 week old chick in a brooder to have worms. Where would they eat something that would have given them worms?
I also doubt a worm egg is visible with the human eye.
You could have a fecal sample read to make sure but I doubt it will come back positive.
Are they getting grit?
Perhaps it is something from the feed that didn't get ground up in the gizzard.
Garlic won't cure worms.

Pictures would be great, we need to see what the worm egg looks like
