Large Droppings

Hi, have noticed the last couple of days very large droppings. I am thinking it could be the breeding hens but not sure. Is this normal?It seems to be in cages with breeding hens but also in aviary but have two pairs in box's in aviary also. Look's normal but huge.

 

:P

Normally huge droppings (with normal consistency) come when a hen is about to lay an egg or spends a great deal of time in the nest box.

 

if the droppings are runny and smelly they have bacterial infection and need treatment.
