So, I plan to go back to my local Wilco in 15 days to buy any pasty butts they have and fix them up.
I know how to fix up pasty butt - warm water, gentle handling...you clear the blockage and check for repeat pasting. But there are members out there with more knowledge than me, so I have some questions I'd like y'all to help me answer!
Here goes...
1
How do I go about treating a recurring prolapse in a chick? I had a slight prolapse in a past pasty chick, and I had a bit of a difficult time treating it. It wasn't severe at all, but it did bleed and scab and cause the chick pain. I want to know ways to help prevent this.
2
What other methods of constipation/pasty butt cures are there out there? Because I know the issue isn't always resolved when the blockage is removed. The chick can have internal constipation/blockages...how can I get things moving? I've heard about coconut oil....is that any good?
3
Has anyone ever treated a very severe pasty butt case and had it live? With the exception of one, what I've dealt with so far hasn't been much more than mild cases. If you have brought a severe case back from the brink, how did you do it, what issues did you run into, and what should I expect?
I may post more questions in the comments here.
TIA!
