Chick poop changed

[MKetter]

I’m a newbie to chicks. I’ve had them just over a week. Their poo was round wet splats. They were eating crumbles. Now they are solid and long. Should I be concerned? They’ve been eating an organic food the last few days, which is very dust-like compared to crumbles, but their poo has been like this just a little yesterday and a lot today. Is it just the food?

Probably just the food. They start out with their first poops being runny green ones, then they progress to brown/black ones. Some are blobs, some stringy like yours. As long as they stay in the dk green/brown/blackish, they are normal.

If ever blood shows up, that would be an indicator of coccidiosis, and you'd treat them with Corid.
