Just this now i put my guinea pigs in their grass run, suddenly i noticed that one of the guinea pigs(Sugar) had soft and runny poo which was yellow@) It didnt look very nice at all she normally has hard poo, but today her poo has gone yellow and quite soft, is this bad? :(
 
I am sorry, but I would srongly recommend to have your piggy seen by a vet asap. That sounds more like an infection to me than a normal tummy upset from too much fresh grass.

It doesn't sound like the horrible diarrhea that can kill within a day (that is black and very smelly), but the sooner you can treat your piggy the better the chances. Make sure that you do not feed any fresh food at all, but that your piggy is still drinking.

Welcome to the forum Guinea Lover, sorry to hear your guinea has such an upset tummy.

Did you manage to see the vet about your piggies diarrhoea? I'm inclined to agree with Wiebke that it doesn't sound dietary related and needs vet attention.
