    really runny poo

    I have an EE hen, Lola, not sure on the age. My guess 2-3? She lays these really pretty nice sized eggs, and she herself is pretty, but her nice fluffy but is always really dirty. I have four other birds and they all have good poo. But Lola has really runny poop. Anything I can do about it?
