Poop question-pic warning‼️

[LittleCoopOnThePrairie]

We have 8 new chicks. 4 were born on 2/26, and the other 4 on 3/3. They’re on a chick starter from a local farm/grain mill. Our other chickens were on food from there their whole lives. They always have food and clean water.

We brought them outside this afternoon to hang out. We put them in a big cardboard box with a (useless, as you’ll see) pee pad for the trip to the back yard. As we were getting them out, this poop happened. It’s loose and dark, and I just want to make sure the girls are good. Does it look normal?
TIA!

Cecal poop, completely normal. It's often a dark brown color, & sticky.
