Pasty vent is a digestive problem and is caused by poor feed or intestinal bacteria. You will need to change the feed or the feeding habits. You can also purchase a tonic from the feed store to add to the water they drink to boost electrolytes. Make sure you are giving them good quality chick feed and plenty of fresh room temperature water. Do not give them any kitchen scraps or sugary foods for a week or until the problem stops. You can clean them up with a soft cloth and warm soapy water taking care to wipe away any fecal matter away from the vent.
