When this little bobwhite quail was around a week old he got pasty butt pretty bad and was completly blocked befor I got it off of him I was as carefull as I could be but he still got a little bit of an ouchie on his bum I washed him up and tried to keep him as clean as I could I had to help him make the first poop as it was huge from being backed up in there for however long it was. Its been almost 4 weeks I think (I am really bad with time frames) and he is pooping on his own and eating and drinking but he smells bad and he always has yucky stuff on his bum feathers and his vent dosnt look right . I have tried everything I can think of to help but IM not shure im doing the right stuff Can someone please tell me whats wrong with it and if there is anything I can do to make it better I feel bad for the little guy.
I washed his bottom as his tail feathers and butt fuzz has crusty stuff on them
Im glad he can poop but why does it look like that
And it leaks clear liquid and smells yucky
 
It almost looks like it might have a bit of a prolapse. You think or just super swollen. Poor baby. Is it eating normal? I wonder if it can eat yogurt and maybe that might help balance out its GI track. Sorry I can't give you anymore help. Just trying to make an educated guess here. I sure hope he gets better.
 
Thank you . I will try yogurt again last time they woudnt eat it but it was just plain maybe if I added a little something to it they would find it more apealing. I hope it gets better to haveing a bum bum is no fun at all
