Poor little peeps......
As for the poop......
It has been my (limited) experience, that is normal. I thought mine were so cute.....standing up, flapping their little wings, wiggling their little bottoms and then"splat", either a firm worm looking poo or a disgusting, chewed tobacco looking "squirt"! It will just get bigger....and unfortunately, squirtier.
Good Luck with the sick ones....
I know it sounds mean but if the little guys don't perk up soon; you may have to be drastic....I wouldn't to take any chances that the other peeps to get sick!
LOL

Okay, I decided against seperating them. They aren't pecking the little raw booty one because I vaselined everyone. That way they are so focused on their own butts that don't even look at the sick one. I had one to die sometime last night, but it wasn't even one of the sick ones
I keep expecting any minute to go in there and see that the little sticky head one is dead. She just keeps looking weaker. She ate a little last night, but I haven't seen her eat today. I don't think it is going to matter what I try with her. She is just a weakling. She just peeps so loud with her eyes closed.
