and Welcome To BYC! The closest one I know is Pleasant Valley Poultry Address: 3160 Pleasant Valley Rd. S.W., Baltic, Ohio 43804, 330 897 0626, Aden Troyer / owner. You might call your local 4-H and FFA county extension agents to see if they know of anyone, also try posting in the BYC Meatbirds section https://www.backyardchickens.com/f/21/meat-birds-etc and also try the Ohio state thread if anyone near there would know. https://www.backyardchickens.com/t/12049/ohio-come-on-buckeyes-let-me-know-your-out-there
You need to soak the chicks butt in warm water till it all comes off. Blow dry the feathers so he doesn't chill. There are a few things you can do..first off, make sure they all know where the water is by dipping the beaks in the water as pasty butt can be caused by dehydration. You can put either probiotics in the water or even some apple cider vinegar in the water for a few days. Apple cider vinegar is mixed 3/4 teaspoon acv to one plastic quart only waterer. Change this every day and make new. You can use human grade probiotics instead....empty one capsule into a quart waterer and change and make new daily.One of my chicks have a pasty butt ,I was told to pull this off but it won't come. any suggestions
