hello! i am so sorry about your chick, i hope other members can help you. pasty butt must be treated immediately since it may be fatal as it is unable to poop and has constipation. i am not well educated and would not like to give you false information, so i’ll wait tomador the other members

I lost one baby to pasty butt with my very first chickies I ever got. So I studied up on it and when the next one came down with it (both were from TS) I was ready. All the things that you just outlined that your did is exactly right. Just do it twice a day and use a q-tip with the olive oil and work it around the vent and you should see improvement quickly.
