One of my chickens pooped this out this morning. They all seem to act fine, eating, drinking l, hanging out. Can someone tell me why this poop looks watery and has some meaty bits? Is this intestinal shedding or cocci or something else?Reproductive Sloughing?
I put an acorn on the side for size comparison

I've been hunting for the acorn you mentioned for five minutes, and still don't see it. Next time you photograph poop, put a ruler or a coin next to it for scale so we can get an idea of how large it is.

Do you see any chicken behaving lethargically? Sickly? Withdrawing from flock activity? If not, there is likely no health issue, and this substance is just intestinal shed. It is the right color for it.
