Not pasty butt... chick cant go

[TheRookie]

My chick has been drinking and eating. She has not gone to the bathroom at all. Her vent is..pulsing? like she has to go to the bathroom (ive noticed other chicks doing the same thing) but nothing ever comes out. Her vent is clear, ive checked several times and even cleaned with a q-tip but still nothing. I dont know what to do. Shes only been eating chick feed and a little hardboiled egg yolk cause she wasnt acting good earlier either.

You could stimulate her to go with a cotton ball dipped in warm water.

How old is the chick?

 

[TheRookie]

She is three days old.

Maybe she has an internal defect? I hope that she will be able to pass poo.

Finally resolved itself. She is now fine and able to go. Thanks for your suggestion wren I think it helped her get the idea.
