Haha wasn't a deliberate thing Cashy - but they do smell different. My other half just seemed to know - he'd stick his nose in the air and say oh they're spreading pig sh1t today or whatever.

Also we got very used to the smell of chicken poo, first of all we had our own flock of birds and some friends of ours used to run one of those big broiler houses where they fatten up chicks for the table. Every six weeks they would have a crop (yes it only takes that long to grow to eating size) and we would go and get a trailer load of muck to rot down for the garden. The smell of ammonia was very good for the old tubes!

Plus we had two goats so we had a large muck heap from their stable as well. Shifted many barrow loads of that stuff in my time!
