Pasty butt...I think. I need cures!

[Frosty_2503]

Yeah she is sleeping more than the others. And usually in a corner. I'll make that cocktail tonight for her to drink. The pasty butt doesnt seem to be worse at all today. Still looks clean and not messy. I wonder why she's being lethargic by sleeping more. Do you think she'll be okay?

Oh totally, make sure to give her lots of the electrolyte drink and give her as much as she needs, give it to her every few hours or as much as possible until she’s as energetic or more energetic than the others, she will live a long happy little chicken life, works every time, I’ve never lost a chick. Keep her bum clean and give her electrolytes and she will be 110% in no time at all

Great, thanks! Would you suggest me giving the whole flock the same water, or just the one chick?

You could try some nutri-drench in their water possibly.

If it comes back again, after you get it cleaned up, smear a tiny bit of vaseline under her vent. It will help future poops from sticking.

Giving the whole flock the water won’t hurt, when I hatch out chicks they get an electrolyte in their water for the first day. Just gives them a lovely little boost!

They've had the water since last night, I saw Wynona drink it multiple times. I don't want to speak too soon, but I think she's doing better so far! No poop on her vent, and she doesnt seem to be sleeping more than the others as much. Thank you so so much for your advice!

No worries! I’m glad she’s getting better now! That stuff really does accomplish miracles. Good luck on your chicken journey!!
