Chick poop

[luvthebeach]

I've been reading on here about chick poop. And I think this is normal, and not coming from just one chick. But just to make sure, I'll post the pic. I have 7 Cinnamon Queen babies, 11 days old. I find this poop throughout the pen, but not a lot. They all act normal and seem healthy. Could someone ease my mind and tell me it's normal, and to stop freaking out? Thank you!

Looks like Cecal poop to me. They have these types of poops a few times a day. https://www.backyardchickens.com/articles/cecal-vs-regular-poop.75555/

You should know what an environmental hazard cecal poop is. First of all, cecal poop originates in the bowels of Hell. It is possessed of the rankest odors, and being very high in protein, it has indelible properties - it will permanently stain anything it gets on. It's worst on cement.

You will be very motivated not to step in any cecal after you track some onto your living room carpet.
