"is it back toward ECE or still colitis? he is acting fine, eating,
drinking
and playing. when checked for hydration, his scruff looks fine. any
ideas?

thanks,

Either way he should be on a bland diet until you see normal poops for a
few days. If it is ECE it is after the initial infection, probably
before you got him, and he may have irritated bowel from the intial ECE.
Still, if none of your others are ill, assuming at least one of them
never had ECE, ECE seems less likely. All of mine showed signs within 48
hours of exposure the first time, and second time 2 weeks later- still
unsure about that being ECE or stress. >
