Mood indigo

When I let the Big Girls out this morning, I was slightly disconcerted to see a pile of indigo poo in their dust bath. And more indigo poos all over the run floor.

I realised, of course, that it was just something they had eaten - and then I remembered that I had been feeding them blackcurrants yesterday afternoon.

So, red cabbage turns the poo bright blue; and blackcurrants turn it dark indigo.
