Just chill. There’s no need to upset anyone over what color or breed their bird is. That’s all.

Some of you might remember that last year, I had chicks. Specifically, chicks from Wilco. More specifically, chicks from Wilco with pasty butt.
What happened was....we stopped to pick up feed at Wilco, which we don't usually do. But when I walked in, I saw those chick tubs. And I saw pasty butt babies who weren't being treated. So what did I do?
I took four of them home, raised them to about 4 weeks old, and then gave them away. Two went to a neighbor, and two went to BYC's very own @EmmaRainboe.

Well, I've gone and done it again.
I've got six new babies, all who had pasty butt.
The chicks all varied in severity, but they were all cases who would've struggled to stay alive if left untreated. I started treating them the moment we got home. They've got clear butts now and are being fed supplemental coconut oil to prevent constipation.

Little Miss Ophelia and Little Miss Phoenix have have had the worst time of it - Ophelia is very weak, and Phoenix screams every time she poops. I mean SCREAMS. Hurts to hear it. I'm hoping they both improve.
I've made a yummy nutritional boost for them - egg yolk, water, chicken electrolytes and vitamins + NutriDrench all mixed/dissolved. They take it very willingly from a dropper, and have all perked up a bit.

Well, here they are!

See if you can guess who's who - we got an Easter Egger, an Olive Egger, a Midnight Majesty Marans, a Buff Orpington, a Golden Laced Wyandotte, and a Barred Rock. (No cheating....you know I'm talking to.)

Gender guesses also welcome. I'm calling them all "Little Miss" until they prove me wrong.

This is a follow-along thread - I'll post updates and cute photos!

I like Ophelia a lot. Is she busy breaking the boys hearts yet?

Calm down nutter. Odd knows I’m just picking.

Don’t tease

I am curious to know what set you off in the first place though. Is it the color or the breed that you dislike?
