Newly hatched keets...this is often a problem. Cause is usually
temperature in brooder being too low and some of it is stress. I lean
toward cold temperatures as the principle villain. The cure is get
rid of the blockage (warm moist towel) by rubbing rear end. I've even
plucked the crap off then washed my fingers.....(very thoroughly). It
works...okay! Usually the fine feathers are an issue...glued to the
hard crap so they can get pulled out. Be very careful not to pull so
hard that you rip the skin or pull a significant amount of fluffy
feathers so that the keet bleeds.

Oh come on, don't be a city boy! Pick that poop off those little butts
if they need it! (Tweezers works too, just be quick like plucking
eyebrows or grey chest hairs, LOL!)
