red butt

Hi all. One of our 5 girls has had diarrhea on and off and a poopy butt. I finally help in holding her while I clipped away as much as I could and asked a bit. We have no experience with this. She even squirted some right out as we worked. Yuck! I did not see any bugs or mites. But as you can...

Hey everyone. I have a ~1 year old barred rock rooster who I just noticed this evening has an incredibly red butt area that extends down his abdomen. It's redder than a strawberry. I'm not too sure if this is a breed thing since he is my only barred rock, so maybe this is kind of a noobie...

My 1 1/2 year old buffed orpington has a sore looking, red butt. I have looked for bugs twice, and don't see them. I have not seen her pecking at her bottom. She seems to act normally. Suggestions please?
