    What do you do with your eggs when you collect them?

    Poop stuck to week old chick’s vent!

    Ripping it off like a bandaid is not cool. It hurts the chick and possibly pull this thing feathers out. You did good with warm water and gently remove the poop. Pasty butt is not good for chicks. Not treated right away,, like you did, and go unnoticed cause backup and they can die. So, a...
