​Diarrhea ​

  • Wet or crusty manure on the rump symmetrically below the tail head
  • At least the size of a hand in total
  • Dirt on the haunches/legs is not included
Presence of diarrhea can be used as an reflection of disease or sickness on a farm.  While it can also be a reflection of a change in environment or feed, perpetual signs of diarrhea could be indicative of a larger health problem and should lead to a more in-depth analysis.  For more indicators of health and disease, see "Other."
There is currently no repeatability test for this measure.
