Cleaning their little behinds

[Ashleyrae0917]

My baby chick I’m worried about is the runt of the others and I’m constantly having to clean her behind, is there something wrong that I can fix or is it normal? I didn’t have these problems with the others

Some chicks are just more prone to butt problems! My first batch I only had to clean one poopy butt one time, but this next set of chicks I have there are two of them who get a poopy butt every other day just about. They grow out of it generally once they can reach their own butts to clean them.

Oh thank god, I just get so worried. That’s a relief though. Thank you so much!! This site has been so helpful already
