Few members of my flock I have noticed have runny stool. Some I have attached you can see are different colors.. I was wondering what would cause it. I am rusty since I haven't had chickens in years. The babys are about 7 months old. Any information would be helpful thank you in advance

Depending on what the chickens eat, their poop reflects it. High water content foods will produce a more liquid poop. Color also reflects the color of that food. This can show up one day, and the next day return to a normal state.

Poop is variable and only a first sign that you should pay attention to the behavior to determine if you have chickens that have a health issue. A first sign of illness would be a chicken standing in one spot, hunched and often feathers fluffed out, eyes often dull and half closed.
