I believe that's normal if you just recently started giving him fresh foods that have high water content. Cucumber and lettuce are especially watery. I could be wrong, though - hoping for some more opinions here!

Electro is correct. I'd also count apples and strawberries as making a contribution to watery droppings too.

yeah, those are all high water content things. You could go for some grains or beans or carrots for a less watery meal.

Sorry, I didn't mean that apples/strawberries aren't watery, just that lettuce and cucumbers are particularly extra watery (although I could still be wrong on that)
