What foods make duck poop smell most?

[CherpNPeep]

Hey everyone! I was wondering what foods make duck poop smell most because I've been noticing a strong oder when they poop after eating alot of greens. Is it true greens make their poop for smelly?

My experience is the more protein is in the food, the worse is the smell. My ducks got their bill's on a pound of mealworms once and when those came back out the squirrels dropped dead from the trees...

Just don’t get behind this duck when she has been eating greens/peas. Her butt is shaped wrong and poop goes horizontal.

I agree protein makes their poop smell the worst!! The only thing I’ve found that makes their poop smell better is fermenting their food. And that’s not for everyone.

I think Broody poop is the worst smell ever. Doesn't matter what they eat. ..All Ducks poop stinks.

Flock raiser crumbles and flock raised in general it's why I switch to Mazuri as soon as they are big enough. Mealworms too. And tomato hornworms out of the garden and lizards.
