DROPPINGS
« on: February 24, 2010, 09:36 »
Have had my 6 'girls' just 3 weeks now (no sign of an egg yet).  However, my question relates to their droppings - some are runny and quite stinky.  Do I need to worry?  Any help to resolve this would be gratefully accepted. Thank you.  J.D.

Hi leggygirls! One other thing is that they can be runny before they start to lay - three of my four have now got really good poo and they only one left is the youngest who isn't laying yet and OMG can hers stink!!!
