that looks like intestinal lining shedding, which is normal and healthy. Do some more research on chicken poop. This is a good page https://chat.allotment-garden.org/index.php?topic=17568.0

It looks like intestinal shed, which can sometimes be nothing to worry about, especially if it's just occasional. Sometimes increased shed can be an indication of internal parasites. So if you are seeing a lot of it, not just occasional, then getting a fecal float test done would rule that in or out. Otherwise the droppings look pretty normal.
