green poop?!

[quackfishing]

my ducks have started to spend their days outside. we have weeds in our backyard, and they love eating them. today i noticed their poop was green. is this just because there is a sudden influx of green food rather than their standard duck pellets or are they sick or are those certain plants bad for them? (the first one is watery because its in a puddle)

Its green food -- healthy! My ducks have duck pellet colored poop in the morning but stoon start with green poop when free ranging and eating weeds!

I agree. Completely normal. When I my olive trees ripen and my ducks start eating them, their poops start turning black. When they are enjoying mud puddles, their poop look like mud. During the summer, when it is hot, they drink lots of water and it becomes more watery. Their poop changes depending on what is in their diet.
