    Poop stuck on butt feathers, what to do?

    I've recently noticed my SLW hen has dried poop stuck on her fluffy bottom feathers. Is this something I should worry about? And what can I do about it? She can poop and lay perfectly fine, I'm just concerned it might turn into something worse. Any help is appreciated.
