Tonight it is almost like his anus is so swollen that he cant eliminate very well. Also I noticed what does come out is white, not brown like the rest of the chicks. He also doesn't smell very good. Any ideas what is going on? I never actually saw dried poop on his butt that started all this. It is almost like he got impacted on the inside and pushed so hard to clear it that now he has injured his rear. Anyone had this happen? I am wondering if I should put him out of his misery..............
