Thank you!!! This was a question I wasn't sure how to ask...didn't think I'd ever spend time poring over pics of bird poop but that was VERY helpful!
Hey fellow poultry lovers, got a follow up question that follows along these lines. After frequently referencing these links, I have figured out that my chickies have been having a few cecal poos, nothing to stress about.......maybe. I've noticed that there are FAR more of these than more solid ones, and that concerns me. I obviously have too many chicks running around to tell whose poo is whose, but is there anything that is in their feed or not in there feed that could cause this or help with it? I feed them DuMore 20% starter crumbles. Don't have any grit in it yet because they aren't old enough. Also, I've noticed that some of these poos are a normal brownish color, but a few are maroon, almost a dark red. Is this another cause for concern or should I just let my girls do their thing and not worry about it?
Thank you!!
