Im raising some chicks and one of them seems to be having a hard time pooping and it just gets stuck in his rear. All of them chicks seem to be doing well but his seems a little weak and we always have to clean up his butt. Is there something i can feed him to make him better? Im afraid he wont survive til adulthood :(
(also im aware theyre called cloacas and not butts but poopy butt was the term the lady who sold them to me used lol)
 
You need to clean it ASAP. It could be fatal if left too long Get warm water, and ether a cloth, cotton ball, paper towel, etc. and clear their butts. When your done, dry them off.

Make sure they're not too hot or cold, and not too stressed.
