"Oh No!! My chick has poop butt, what should I do?"

HA HA HA! Just kidding Feds Hens! Oh man I'm funny.

But seriously, what is 'poop butt' and what would it be a sign of?

I think it's pretty self-explanatory...

Coccidiosis, worms, poor nutrition...?

Having a fluffy butt?

Also known as pasty butt. Common in shipped chicks and brooded chicks where the temp is consistently on burning in hell...

I see.

Thanks

I think it is also a symptom of stress.

The quote you have on the thread title came from the 20 years... Thread, I think there might be a fredshens explanation in there somewhere.

One of our chicks got pasty butt after her first day out in a pen with sand. She gorged on it, and it stopped her up.
