Sammy Posted October 1, 2009 Share Posted October 1, 2009 One of my girls (and I haven't worked out which yet) is doing pink poos - well it's the white (the wee) that's pink. Does anyone have idea what could be causing this? It's seem to be more apparent first thing in the morning when I let them out, it's there in their house. All 7 girls were wormed 3 weeks ago and so going through it again as one of my girls had a bad case of them. They are up to date with vaccines, have various supplements daily and all laying well except Clover (white leghorn) who seems to have stopped and looking a bit shabby so looks like she's moulting (no lice or red mite - already checked). What could cause be causing the pink colour - I'm assuming this is a bit of blood? Thanks for your help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted October 1, 2009 Share Posted October 1, 2009 Could be something she ate. Beetroot? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sammy Posted October 1, 2009 Author Share Posted October 1, 2009 There's nothing in the garden that would cause it - no fruit, veg or red plants growing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chickenNutter Posted October 2, 2009 Share Posted October 2, 2009 Gosh! What a relief! Who would have thought that poo could come in so many forms! Imagine if humans could do a range like that - what a wailing and gnashing of teeth there would be every morning. I am relieved to see one or two I had encountered with my girls. that has put my mind at rest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
