It sounds like sticky chick which points to humidity issues. You can leave it like that and it won't hurt or take a warm wet washcloth and rub the area to get the "stickiness" off and it should dry a bit fluffier. Just make sure that you don't keep him out from under the brooder light too long that he catches a chill.I have a chick that just hatched and he's feathers are all stuck together he's dried off but his feathers are all clumped up, I don't know if its normal or what to do.
