    poop concerns

    I have a 8/9 month old hen who is pooping water. Yes, straight water. I just noticed so I'm sure it hasn't been happening for long. Does anyone have any ideas why? Is this a one time thing, normal or should I be concerned.

    Rocky was the first of our three pullets to start laying. Her first egg came last Monday. She skipped a day then laid and now she gives us an egg every day.
