s...
is this normal? or should I be worried??

I poo pick everyday & find poo's like that. I think it's the rain that makes it go like that I could be wrong, but I wouldn't panic.

My ponies poos are like this at the moment also.

rain or pheasant attack!

It looks like the crows, or pheasants, have been at it.

Same here.....

I find them like that sometimes.....I thinks its birds/insects that have been nomming it

Rain!

Mine looks like that when flies have been at it.

Either crows or dung beetles do that to the poo. Since it's not dung beetle time of year, I would say hungry birds. They especially like poo that has linseed or oats in it

Rain and crows! We usually get a few looking like that.

think it is insects,hate them type of poos,bugger to scrape up

Bizarrely, I found poos like this on the TOP of 5 of my fence posts And yes, for a milli-second I wondered how my girls had managed to poo at such an incredible height.

I then read on google about how feeding whole oats means that birds pick through the poo to get at the oats that have passed through undigested - obviously these birds had gone one better and carried poo onto the fence posts

It's caused by dung beetles and birds.
