Hi, one of our 3 day old chicks has a slightly protruding and very matted bottom with a little yellow liquid seeping out. Anyone got any ideas what it could be? Thanks

Hi, none of that stuff in the feed - i'll see if i can find some. Having said that, the little blighter seems to have caught up with his siblings and has cleaned up a bit. Thanks v much
