One of my chicks has got something on its bottom, help please!

[Golden the Bantam]

Last night, i saw that one of my chicks has a sort of ruptured rear end. i have worries from past experiences, but it isn't bleeding, just dry. her feathers are sort of dry and brown

There is a little thing sticking out of, i can't tell, but i looks like a feather that hasn't opened up yet or something. its right below the pink spot that is her bottom. i am worried about this.


If you know what this is is or if its serious, please reply. i will put some bag balm on to help the dryness.

i can't tell from the photo, sorry

could you soak it with a warm damp washcloth and try to clean it off so you can get a better look?
