Constipated chick?

[maadroj]

I have a one week old chick who seems healthy and poops a lot, but seems to strain a little bit when she does. Sometimes she stretches and sometimes she backs up several steps. No visible pasty butt. Is there any reason for concern?

what does she stretch? (her neck, legs? etc?)
When our birds poop they back up a few steps as well. @Kiki or @007Sean might know something.

Backing up is normal.

I wouldn't worry.

 

[007Sean]

Some birds do that, especially chicks, nothing to worry about.

Yep, normal.

Thanks, everyone!
