I have one baby chick that had pasty butt so I gently cleaned the area and put her back in with the other chicks. It has been hours and she will not lay down and is sleeping standing up and is trying to rest on other chicks (standing up). All the other chicks are laying down sleeping and she is...
Have one little chick smallest of six that has a red protrusion from his butt. I gave him three warm baths and cleaned him up yesterday put Vaseline on. He seems pretty lethargic. I made sure he's drinking water and I know he ate a little food yesterday but I'm not sure about today. Is there...
Hi, I just received my checks in the mail yesterday morning and this is my first time I’ve ever raise baby chicks, so please excuse me for my ignorance. I’m not sure if this is pasty butt or not can somebody please let me know and if not what it is, and what I can do to help, my baby chick.
Okay so my rooster just recently died and i’m not sure why. He’s around a year old and had been acting weird the past few days. He was acting lethargic and tired. I didn’t notice him not eating/drinking but I don’t think he was doing much of either. A few days ago i decided to take a look at him...

The other day about three or four days ago we got baby chicks and so far three of them have died out of eight and one was already sick I noticed they all have pasty butt and i was wondering if it was okay if i waited till tomorrow morning to fix it I tried tonight but they wouldn’t stay still...
I've been raising chickens for about 3 years now and sometimes foster sick chicks giving them the individual care and attention that they need... or at least i try to. i picked up a chick today that seemed to be suffering from an extreme case of pasty butt. It is two days old, its vent was...
We have 7 bantam chicks. We bought them on Thursday, so they're about 6 days old. They've been consuming magic water and medicated chick feed.
