This presentation (green, stinky, and diarrhea) can be caused by anything which results in too-rapid transit time.
Birdseed stool is typically due to poor digestion of fats or small intestine problem.
Mucus on a rare basis is simply losing a mucus plug and nothing to worry about but more frequently or when connected to a specific food it can indicate irritation of the colon.
As I recall there is info on stool appearances in

Here you go:

and if memory serves there is at least one past vet post (I think from Dr. Bruce Williams.) which tells about assorted stool appearances in
http://fhl.sonic-weasel.org
but I think it may be the same as the above
