hi everyone!
I'm back with yes, MORE blue laced red WyandottesI can't stop hatching!!!
Set day is today, planning to hatch around April 3![]()
side note... I have a 2 day old chick that I ordered, did not hatch her myself.. she is an olive egger. she had pasty butt when she arrived, and I cleaned it up. she is on organic ACV water among other things (vitamin water, electrolyte/probiotic water) for her PH for the pasty butt. however...
it seems like she can't poop? I have seen small amounts of liquid/water come out, but no poop. when she tries to poop she strains, and she cries out during the straining. she also has a little dried up black navel, wondering if she perhaps didn't develop properly internally. I have cleaned the vent with AB ointment and prep H. I dont know how else to help her.... makes me so sad to hear her crying.
I had a chick like that. I literally had to massage the poop out of it by rubbing it's belly & pinching the vent open. It was completely impacted. That particular chick didn't make it, but it's possible it would have if I had caught it sooner.
