Is it just me or does the poo of nonspayed girls smell worse than that of spayed girls?

If there is a general difference, what would be the cause?
 
Never noticed a difference.
Any differences I have notice have been due to factors such as diet, or meds, and of course smelly fear poop
 
Fear poo and poo after kale kills me :) but my boys smell worse. I never noticed a problem with the girls. I think it can be an indication of an upset belly, might try a cracker, i guess that helps in the poo department. I know when my rats are on antibiotics, I make them light a match. Stink bombs everywhere.
 
hmm..that's weird 'cause i could swear there's a difference. maybe there could be one rat who happens to have smellier poo than anyone else?
i don't mind it as long as it's not a health issue. though i do mind the poo that gets smashed at the bottom of the wheel
 
i actually don't feed much fruit, just berries and melon a few times a week. i suppose i feed a fair amount of beans, if that makes a difference. i think it's only 1 or 2 rats though. who knows, maybe i'm just crazy, but i swear my spayed girls or neutered boys' poo never smelled at all.
