Ooo there is definitely some sort of gut issue there. Probably only a small imbalance though. Maybe limit the veg for a couple of days and try to add some probiotics to see if it improves

I did give them a couple of handfulls fresh grass yesterday which they are not use to. I suspect it may of been too much for one of them.
If you give grass it’s best to treat it as part of the veg allowance and reduce the veg a bit to compensate. I suspect that if you keep them to hay and pellets today they will be back to normal by tomorrow (although they will have made you feel wicked in the extreme for withholding their veg!).

Thanks Vicki I'll do that. Luckily I'm going out tonight so they won't have chance to guilt trip me!

Success, we have normal poo again! I'll remember in future that grass counts as veg.
