That looks like a cecal poop which is fermented, and has that shiny sticky consistency, and can be in colors from gold to orange to brownish black. Are you seeing anything inside that dropping? I would look for more droppings later. Are you chickens acting okay?

The small intestine and large intestine come together and the 2 ceca are attached. Foods are broken down and fermented there. Here is a picture:

This one doesnt have anything inside it but sometimes there will be white stuff in it but right now its all caramel colored
