Sick chick--am I doing this right?

Oh! I just found this poo chart that's been posted on the forums before. Looks like it's just ceacal poo that I'm seeing. Yay for poo pics!

That's the smelly poo! One of my main motivators for setting up an outdoor brooder for my chicks! Bleck!

I may need to do the same the next time around!

I hate to say this, but many of the "normal" poops on that page are *not* normal.

I don't think it's all of them. I'll keep a closer eye on them.

If you want to rule out bedding as the cause of the sneezing, try using a towel instead.

Just saw another post where someone's chick was sneezing with no other symptoms and they had just switched to pine shavings! Sounds like chickens noses (nostrils??) don't like the pine! https://www.backyardchickens.com/t/1014762/sneezing-16-week-old-easter-egger#post_15723852
