Scientists are unsure what the dodo's diet consisted of. Some sailors report seeing the dodo catching fish in shallow water pools. However it is likely that the dodo bird actually ate fruits and seeds. This would mean that the dodo was a herbivore or, if they really did eat fish, an omnivore.

The dodo bird was primarily an herbivore, feeding on fruits, seeds, and plants found in its native habitat on the island of Mauritius. There is no substantial evidence to suggest that dodos were omnivores.
No. Dodo birds are omnivores because they eat fruit(considered a plant)and fish.
primarily fallen fruits, roots, seeds, bulbs. It has been speculated they may have fed on crabs & shellfish as well, but unproven, so no one can say for sure.
