New to chickens

[dmaurer]

Hi, we are new to the whole chick/chicken world. We have 5 chicks between the ages of 2 - 4 weeks old. While cleaning out there tote I noticed a red mucous looking poop. Not sure which one it is and not sure if it anything to be concerned about. All seem to be acting normal
Can anyone help?

Thanks
