  • Chicks are 1 week old, should I be concerned about pasty butt?

    Yes, it can kill a chick if he can't poop! Don't try to wipe it off--the overfilled bowels can rupture, killing him. Hold him gently in a sink of 103-106° water covering his butt, letting the warm water soften it. Then very, very, very gently break up the pastiness without pressing on his rear. Dry him thoroughly (under your shirt is good) before putting him with the other chicks who might peck a naked wet butt.
