Mold or yeast and fermented feed?

The top stripe in the second picture is the feed under mold or yeast. It smells disgusting.

Thanks for the response. Why do you say that?

Based on the smell, color and texture

If it smells like beer, it's supposed to.

How long has it been sitting there?

Is this for fermented feed? A water bucket?

I think it's yeast and quite a lot of it, so either it's very hot or it's been left sitting for a while.

Mold would generally be fuzzier and patchier (unless this has been sitting undisturbed for quite a while).

It has been there for a while. I made a batch of fermented feed, but forgot that I was gonna be home for the next couple of days, so I let the chickens free range the entire days and didn’t feed it to them. And I kind of forgot about it. Probably 2-3 days, and it has been 95-100 degrees. Not sure what beer smells like
