    Not urgent

    I haven't seen worms yet. She is the second one in that particular flock that has dirty butt. I have another female that has dirty butt as well but she always has had problems keeping clean. They both have fluffy butts so I figured that was the reason.

    My chickens butt had been dirty. I cleaned her but while I was cleaning I saw her skin was red and look irritated. Is there something I could do for her? Couldn't get a picture she barely let me give her a bath.
