No that's pretty bad. They should not have any waste collecting on them

Does it have to do with the temperature of the brooder box

 

[Mutchi]

If it is then I told my mom we need one! But she said that we don't

 

[Mutchi]

She obviously doesn't know anything about chickens

It's from an imbalance of good bacteria in the birds gut and from stress. Can be as simple as just stress, or being too hot or too cold

Ok so what is the average temperature of the brooder?

Chicks need a hot spot and a cool spot. Hot spot starts at 95, and lowers about 5 degrees each week

That butt really looks bad. You might try carefully shortening some of the feathers back there, so the poo doesn't get caught in them.
