Pasty butt on Columbian rock

[Jamescbarrow]

Hey all I have gotten 15 chicks that are Columbian rock, and I keep having issues with pasty butt.

What Are they eating? How hot is the brooder? Can they get away from the heat?

 

[Jamescbarrow]

They are eating Purina medicated feed and yes they can get away from the heat.

 

[Jamescbarrow]

Brooder is not that hot I can stick my hand on the shavings and just can feel the heat on the back of my hand.

 

[Jamescbarrow]

This is my brooder set up, it is actually in my coop.

 

[nuthatched]

Brooder is not that hot I can stick my hand on the shavings and just can feel the heat on the back of my hand.

[Jamescbarrow]

Around 91 to 93 degrees is where it is at on the bedding directly under the light.
