Do bottle fed babies get constipation/trapped wind more than breastfed babies?

Well, I used formula and my baby never once got constipated. I’ve heard that breast babies don’t get constipated because breast milk is easier to digest, but I don’t know for sure. I just know that my formula Baby didn’t ever get constipated. As far as bottle fed babies being more gassy, I’m not sure. I’ve noticed some people saying that their breast fed babies wouldn’t ever get gas, but I know that my sister’s little boy was very very gassy and was exclusively breastfed. So I would assume it just depends on the baby.
