So long story longer, i had a flood in my barn, chickens got a bacterial infection, put on antibiotics, now diarrhea on a few, im getting plain yogurt to help with that, will worm when done with the antibiotics as suggested by the chicken people at Purdue University. My question is, one of my chickens has gross feathers way below her vent, can i use a baby wipe to clean it instead of getting her all wet with a bath?
 
I think it would be fine, as long as you use 'unscented' or 'for sensitive skin'. But a bath might be more efficient. Hope I helped

Thanks,
I will try to see if it works, might have to give her a bath but won't get a chance to until Monday and don't want to leaver her so dirty until then. So I will try the wipes and let you know if it works!
 
So I went to use the wipes that next morning, and she had cleaned her bottom herself (ewwww) but a clean butt is a well.....anyway....
