    Hi guys don't no if this Is the correct place to post but any way, a few weeks ago I was walkin through the garden when I got to the end I looked down and noticed yellow stuff on the top of my shoe jus a small bit looked kinda like baby poo, I walked back the way I went intending to move what was left but couldn't find this mysterious thing anyhere no trace of a lump of poo existed , this morning before school my kids wer n the garden waiting for me to come out wen we got n the car one of them had this yellow stuff on the tops of both shoes got him out if car and he showed me where he was n the garden again no sign of anything. Does an animal make small yellow poo? Should I b worrying about this mysterious yellow stuff infecting my kids. Hopefully he guys know better than me

    I'm intreagued :D

    Are you sure its not birdy goo?
    I've seen all kinds of goo left behind by all sorts of animals, does it smell?
    can you get a picture for us next time please?
    the only yellow baby poo goo I can think of is yellow brain fungus and that turns to goo as soon as it is removed from wood.

    Probably a slime mould. Not common but it happens.

    Noticed yellow on my shoes recently as well and put it down to pollen from the buttercups that are flowering where I was walking.
