This person covered it for you!!That appears to be a Roundworm. It would be best to dose your flock with an anthelmintic - two effective ones are SafeGuard and Valbazen. For my birds, I simply draw up the dose first thing in the morning while they're on the perch, pinch the beak corner, or pull-down their wattle, insert the syringe into the right side of their mouth, and press on the plunger.

The dose for SafeGuard is 0.23ml per pound, orally, for five days. Valbazen is 0.08ml per pound, orally, once, then in ten days.

i gave him a dose yesterday and today morning i found his poops normal except this one on the photo. i never saw this before. i read that when you cripple the worm it start coming out in discharge. is that the case ?SafeGuard is very effective for most worms, including roundworms. Administered correctly, your cockerel will be fine. It is vital you start treatment on him now before his condition deteriorates.
