Chicken clean up

[Bootsnpearls]

Hi! Curious how you go about cleaning a chick. My 5 day old Ameraucana is eating, drinking, and very much bright and alert but has a yellowish/brown stool. I am going to start them all on a probiotic even though the other two don't appear to have it as bad as her. New to chickens, so any other advice would be highly appreciated! Thank you!

Hi

Welcome To BYC

Any photos of your new babies

You can hold her bum under warm running water and gently wash the poop off or try soaking a qtip in water then work the poop out of her down. Dry her well, you don't want her to get chilled.
