So you were expecting rose-scented poo?
It's actually impossible to say it's "normal" 'cause we aren't actually smelling it here, just going by your description; unusually stinky poo can be normal or can
mean his digestion is a little off...maybe due to stress or other things (for example, snakes that have been on antibiotics, for example, may not digest as well
for a while, since the good bacteria needed for digestion have been medically killed off along with the bad bacteria- sometimes giving probiotics designed FOR
reptiles can improve their digestion & thus the resulting odor; ultra-stinky-poo can also result from a "bad" rodent.)
Speaking for my snakes, a few have nastier-smelling poo than others do. If it's worrisome, take a fresh sample to the vet & have them do a fecal check for
icky stuff that doesn't belong (& can be cleaned up). Or, get nose plugs...
