my baby chicks have poop stuck to them....this easy fix could save a life

What happens here

The video demonstrates how to introduce new baby guinea fowl chicks to an existing brooder containing slightly older chicks. The guinea fowl chicks are very small and rambunctious. The presenter warns against introducing a single new bird to a group as it might get picked on. He places the guinea fowl chicks into the brooder with the other chicks, noting that it's important for them to be similar in age and size to minimize aggression.

Goal: Safely integrate new guinea fowl chicks with existing chicks in a brooder.
