Hello,

We just got new chicks to add to our flock and noticed that one may have pasty butt. I took a Q-tip and warm water and tried to clean it. It looks like the vent is clean, but I cannot get the dried feces off of her . After cleaning her with a Q-Tip, I rubbed some olive oil on it to try to soften the poop.

Any advice is welcome.

No this is not pasty butt. It looks to be a problem with the umbilical cord. I have not had this problem occur in my birds so I can not give advice on what to do.
