More than likely food related (strawberries) but also could be a outbreak of Salmonella or tear of some type (maybe ate something abrasive to her hindgut/vent)I'd wait a couplea more days...forget the red foods for a bit...and see if it stops. Coming into season can change color of urates...mostly orange tinge not blood/ red. Igs sometimes lay eggs in the dardest places, if she's a free roamer....how close is she? can you make out eggs already? If she rejects one nest box
make another....sometimes they can get picky about their nest boxes so Ive read anyway....Im sure others have answered your questions already tho....much luck....talk about nerve rackin...huh?
