Obviously you've never waded through a corral in the spring, up to your ankles in horse s*it.

so it's my fault they can't bury their excrement?
Horse s*it doesn't stink. I've never worked out why, I assumed it was maybe meateaters that made stinky s*it, but then why does vegetarian human s*it stink? Is it just the fact that we're capable of digesting meat?
Prick.
Did you ever dig a hole to bury your own s*it?
Yep, you keep feeding them so they keep producing more s*it.
It does if you roll in it.
Nope, some cow s*it stinks too.
Is that the best you can do?
Now try that in dog s*it.
Nothing like cat and dog and human s*it. I guess a diet of grass makes your s*it less smelly.
Not feeding them makes them stop living.
I do if there's no flush toilet around.
And that does stink much worse than cat s*it.
Any dead animal stinks a lot worse than any s*it.
How about cow s*it? Before you answer I'll mention a feed lot near Coalina CA that can be smelled for miles, and it's not a good smell. Of course a feed lot is a completely unnatural environment where the cattle play king of the hill on massive piles of s*it.
I don't know what the current dogma is but for at one time the advice to hikers was if you bury it something is just going to dig it up anyway so leave it on the surface to decompose more rapidly.
And our chicken operation that is alleged to be the biggest operation in the entire southern hemisphere, stank very bad as you drove past it in the car before they rebuilt the entire row of sheds.
Nah, best to bury it to reduce the likelyhood of someone else stepping on it.
Cow s*it in Scotland doesn't smell bad, so unless you feed them something completely different....
Isn't your country the only 1st world country in the southern hemisphere?
I never smelt anything bad from my friend who kept chickens. He just had about 40 of them though.

I did have one that had an unusual way of using the litter box. She would have her feet on the rim, so all the s*it and piss went on the floor. That lasted only a month or two, until she just used the floor. But the s*it wasn't very smelly. Piss was, not fresh but after she died and I had to clean the floor. Nature's Miracle does work.

Which reminds me of the Monty Python show where the ant is the national pet. One customer asks what to feed them, and is told not to feed them anything. It's cheaper to get new ants.
