Is this normal?

My hens just started laying eggs and they all have whatever this white stuff is on their butt.
I’m newer to owning chickens so I’m not sure what it is and if it’s normal.
Any help is appreciated!

If it is not too much I shouldn't be worried, they usually clean it when they take baths however if it's becoming too much you can look up "vent gleet" and compare if they develope that. Just check some times for flies, they love poopy butts and they can cause something called flystrike.
