One of my new 2 week old chicks (6 of them) was not able to poop. I removed a big blob of dried poop by rinsing the chick off with water. The chick has not grown but the other 5 have taken off and are almost twice the size. There are 2 of each breed and this is one of the Barred Rocks. The chick is cheeping, eating, drinking but is still collecting poop for the last 3 days. What is causing this? Tonight I applied vegetable oil to help the poop fall off.
Is there anything I can do for this little one or will I lose it?
