It's not the first time it's happened, and he cleared up on his own, but I thought now I'm on here I might as well use your valuable knowledge :P

Young Timothy my 2 year old neutured boar has poos that have never had a staple look. They're usually fairly small in comparison to Dylans, but yesterday I noticed a difference.

Well initially I opened the hutch and they were all splurged in a corner, so I panicked going 'omg he's got the squits vets vets vets', but once he was out in the run I realised he was passing them as solid in the proper pellet shape, only slightly larger than his usual size, slightly lighter in colour, and obviously not as solid as when he treads on them they squish easier than normal.

He's had no change in diet, apart from I gave him half a 'hay cookie' from P@H, which is just a solid lump of highy condensed hay. Dylan had one too and hasn't seemed to have bothered him.

Any ideas guys?
 
I'd give him a pro biotic. My Willow occasionally gets soft poo, and pro biotics clear it right up for her.
