Hi im having bit of a prob with runny bottoms on 2 bantam girls all the others seem ok, as its all over there back ends and doesnt look or smell to nice, but they have all been wormed and are on a fully balanced diet of layers pellets, free ranging and have greens a couple times a week. is there anything else it could be?

Might be worth googling   Vent Gleet    :-\

Greens produce runny bots, if given if large amounts or where not given before.
 I'd eliminate these from the diet for a bit and see what happens and go from there.
