Yeah, it's more watery than usual and lots stinkier. Variation in colour - it seems to vary anyway depending on what I feed them (food scraps, grain and pellets and whatever they find in the garden). No other symptoms that I can pick - eating well, lots of thick shiny feathers, healthy red comb. They have had a bit of a change in living conditions in that for the past week I've been locking them in their yard (still ample space I think at about 3m by 5m) to prevent them trashing my new seedlings. They also had a bit of a scare last week as DH got out the chainsaw and removed a small tree near their yard - poor girls hid under a bush for the next few hours!
Just found something on google called 'cloacitis' - hmmm, hoping it's not that, but it does seem similar. Ooh goody, if it is that, the treatment is not going to be fun for them or me!
If you get a chance to talk to your Mum or Sis that'd be great but please don't go out of your way - or theirs. Ta!
ETA: Thanks Jakabella, yeah, I'm thinking I'd better take them to the vet. Love em' but siiigh, animals are expensive!
