Just been cleaning out and noticed some poos had a pinkish tinge to them. I was worried it may be blood, but they did have some beetroot yesterday so it could just be that. I was just wondering if someone could take a look and see give and opinion.

The pics don't really do justice as the camera isn't that good, however you can see a difference...just.

The three on the left are normal colour the right side are the pinky ones

Again left is normal, right is not.

I haven't noticed any other symptoms, but will keep an eye on them today.
 
I would say it's the beetroot - mine have it weekly and have pink poops/wee for a few days :))
Just keep an eye on things but would safely say it's nothing to worry about tbh :)
 
Looks like beetroot poo to me!

Often they have pinky poo/wee for a few days after having beetroot. Blood is much redder and often appears dark rather than pink.
 
Phew...That's what I was thinking. Just needed a 2nd opinion :)

Thank you!
 
Hahahahaha how funny :))

I didn't kno they could eat beetroot! How do you give that to them then? I'm not a beetroot fan so am not overly familier with the beetroot situation...
