I just want to know if this is blood and if I should be concerned. I feel like I've seen their poop look slightly orange before on occasion but I'm on extra alert because we just lost a pullet to some sort of respiratory infection and we have another in sick bay so I'm looking at anything as a warning sign right now. Should I be concerned?
And while we're at it, is extremely runny white poop a warning sign for anything specific. Obviously diarrhea is never a good sign but there's a difference between an animal eating something it shouldn't have and an animal slowly dying of parasites...
Additionally, the pullets poop a lot on the lid to the container we keep their food in. When I take the lid off and put it on the floor, several often surround the lid and begin picking the poop off and eating it. What gives? Should I be preventing them from doing this? (I don't see how I would) Does this mean they're bored? Hungry? Is this normal behavior? I have many questions.
