Diarrhea- help!

Sorry cross post but I really need some help

Snowdrop has always had oddly shaped poos since we had her. Most days they are fairly large but she also gets quite soft poos if she eats alot of veg.

Today she has had a few carrot tops which I dont think I have given her before and now she has a little bit of diarrhea. Its not alot but how much of an emergency is this? I have never had a bun with it before.

Could there be an underlying condition that is causing her to have so many poo problems or is it just a reaction to the carrot tops? She is fine in herself and eating well.
 
it's just too much green. If you stop giving the green, the soft poo should stop. Do a 7 day hay only diet will work nicely.

If the soft poos doesn't stop, then you need to see a vet. But you should be fine without the vet.

Thanks. She hasnt had any more over night and is still fine in her self. She is eating as normal. I have put her on a hay only diet for a few days.
