They show no other symptoms until right before they die. They start gasping for breath and eventually pass out and die. This happens...

    A Case of Pasty Butt

    So out of my new chicks I got from TSC, one has pasty butt. I cleared the poop out from her vent and got it out of her down, but I’m still worried about her. She keeps picking at her butt and so do the other chicks. I did just see her poop for the first time since clearing it up though! That’s...
