I just stepped out on the back porch. Someone is spreading chicken manure. It has been inthe air for the last three days. Not strong, but way off. The smell travels for miles.

Cow manure stinks but not real bad.

Chicken manure really stinks with a piquant ammonia aftertase on the tongue and eyes.

Pig manure stinks beyone aything immaginable! Super Bad!

Human manure from the sewage treatment plant stinks with a sickly sweet smell.

Horse manure smells like Congress is in session.

Pig manure stinks beyone aything immaginable! Super Bad!

We used to raise a few pigs, mostly for our own consumption(about thirty animals all together( piglets,sows and a few boors of varying ages) They were spread out in a "free range" situation so their smell didn't overwhelm you unless you were on top of a fresh pile. But a neighbor a few miles down the back road in a hollow had a (relatively)small lot where he raised two-three hundred hogs, feed them exclusively on grain(no rooting)Basically they sh%t where they ate. And the smell was terrible. Summers were unbearable. It literally took your breathe away. Luckily, with the help of the woods and the wind(We were upwind most of the time) it didn't hit us unless the wind changed from it's usual pattern. Never could see how the man could stand living butt up to the lot. Guess you can get used to anything.

Congress smells like a mixture of donkey, elephant, rino, dino and ostrich manure!

It’s bad enough to gag a maggot!
