Thanks agapanthus I have seen a few about so it is not the a one off, but I am not sure if it is every poo. As I had mite to kill this weekend so I could not follow her about.

No idea Roughlee.

Looks to me as though she's not been eating her pellets and has pecked up lots of dirt instead. The grain she's eaten has not been digested at all, does she have plenty of grit available.

As Aggy says, a one off is not a problem !

Yes she she a large run (75m of electric fence layed out in an odd shape as to encompass immoveable objects and stuff in a field) . Pictured her in stable as I had to round em up and spray them for mite with "mite Kill" .

Does she have the right kind of grit Ruff ?

mmmmm she has what she would have naturally if she was free ranging. As her run is 75m of fenced in feild and about 3 square metres of gravel drive.

Gravel drive stones might be a bit big and there many not be enough grit of the right sized stuff around. I think you should mix some poultry grit in with their crushed oyster shell !

She has oyster shell. But will get some true grit for her.
