Have some new chicks, the oldest around 10 days old, youngest about 7 days. I have seen this poo 2 times, once yesterday and this one today, very stinky, but don't know who is doing it. They've not been outside at all. Only have starter food and fresh water. Should I be concerned? Doesn't seem normal to me. Any assistance would by very much appreciated!

It looks like cecal poop. Cecal poop is totally normal and occurs daily; about 1 in 7-8 droppings in both baby chicks and adult chickens. Nothing to worry about! :)
 
Well....one question answered, now a new concern, runny poo. Second time today, don't know who....any comments, suggestions? Thank you!!
