I'm fairly new to raising chickens and I noticed one of my 9 week olds hind end looks like this. I'm assuming runny poop but I haven't seen any. Is there something I need to do?
What's wrong with my chicken butt?

Does she have mites or anything?
It's possible that she sat in something like mud and the others started picking at the feathers. I would try a bath and put on some ointment like Neosporin. If they are picking at her, I'd try a chicken apron until the area feathers out.

I haven't noticed any picking. I don't think she has mites. It could be possible she's sat in mud I didn't even think of that!! Duh!! I'll start with a bath! Thank you!
No problem 
A good wash might also give you an idea of what's going on too. Just make sure she's dry before she goes back with the flock
