green Posted January 1, 2011 Share Posted January 1, 2011 My Bluebelle has got a dirty bum as well and I managed to solve the mystery... It's because she started sleeping in the nest when the weather got colder, and unfortunately the poos that appear overnight make her bum a bit dirty. Maybe yours does the same?

Donna C Posted January 1, 2011 Author Share Posted January 1, 2011 That could be true as nice mormal pooh in run and they seem really good. Small eggs though, 50g but hoping they'll get bigger . Many thanks and Happy new year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
