Poop question

monocledcobra Aug 19, 2004 06:40 PM

Is BD poop suppose to smell that bad? Mine had a fecal recently and everything was perfectly clean...but man does it stink when he drops a load. Is there anyway to reduce the odor. I clean it right away, but the smell makes me a little nausous (sp?).

thanks

parasitic infections can make BD poop smell worse. sometimes fecals can produce a false negative but not with a heavy load of nasties. It might be something he ate or poor digestion. You could try a probiotic like acidophiliz and see if that helps. BTW when you got a fecal, did they do a gram stain?

I've noticed that Mustard greens make it smell worse here. Are you using them?
