Help! My chick was recently born and it has this scab/poop at the end of its butt. Is this normal? If not what do I need to do?

The scab is just the umbilical cord... your baby is gonna be just fine 🙂 it should fall off within a soy or two, whatever you do do NOT pull it off. You could seriously hurt the baby if you do!
