Hi guys- I gave my two some kebabs with fresh strawberries
the past two days in addition to their regular food so when I noticed
a change in the color and texture of their poops I figured it was the fruit

has anyone else ever seen this?
it is a brownish thicker kinda compared to the green/black normal ones
I noticed when they eat lots of broccoli it is more green and watery

Yup, happens all the time. I especially will see it if Jinx picks out certain colors of pellets to eat, sometimes she decides that all she wants to eat is the red ones and her poops will be reddish (the same goes with strawberries when she eats them).

Navi helped herself to my breakfast orange, and her poop was a bright turquoise for an hour after! Thankfully, it changed back.

That would totally freak me out if Darcy had a turquoise poop! Of course, the only way Darcy will touch a fruit or veggie is if it's in his mash. I tried to give him a piece of fig the other day. Man, you should have seen the look he gave me. "What is THIS?"

I was in a panic for half an hour until they changed back! I had no idea oranges could do that.
Navi's similar, she won't try ANYTHING unless I'm eating it, too.
