Hello XXXXXXX,
Yes, the description provided, seems that the reddish discoloration in the stool of your pet, could be due to undigested food, that he had consumed.
Since the diarrhea had already cleared, and he had recovered well, this need not be a matter of concern.
In case, he has XXXXXXX red blood in the stools, repeated vomiting, diarrhea, loss of weight etc, then this could indicate a sign of enteritis (bacterial infection) and might need a examination by a vet.
I hope this helps.
I shall be available to answer any follow up queries .
