Tarry stools

[Carol Harvey]

I have 3 Warrens which are approx 2 years old, and lay 2 or 3 eggs nearly every day. One of them ((I’m not sure which, although I have looked) has been producing very tarry stools for several months now, which are unpleasant to clear up. They all appear to be healthy, have access to layer pellets, some corn and grit. I let them out into the garden every day for 3 or 4 hours and they love to stroll around, kicking up the gravel area, pecking for worms etc. Should I be worried? Is there any more I should be doing? Any advice or suggestions welcome.

Post pictures if you are concerned. I really don't think there is any thing wrong. If there is,, I do not have a solution.
You mention they seem healthy and productive.
The gumdrop colors can vary by their diet. Maybe one particular one prefers a certain food found free-ranging. Or gets to it before the others have a chance to sample.
