Chicken poop question

[whwerb]

I’m a newbie. I have 7 black javas that are 19 weeks old. I feed a grower feed and give mealworms and watermelon as treats. They free range every couple of days. All poops have been normal except for this one I found on the poop board this morning. Should I be concerned? Thanks.

To me it just looks like loose stools with a lot of urates.
I wouldn't worry about it unless someone starts acting off.

Okay thanks. Everyone is acting normally except I did notice one of the cockerels’ tail is down. Is that something to watch for?

Is he acting lethargic at all or is he acting completely normal?

Normal

Normal

He's probably fine then.
If you don't mind, you could get a picture of him so I can see his tail, just to make sure its nothing of concern.

I will check his butt tomorrow and let you know. Thank you!
