Howdy all! I've been absent for a while, since my DD and her 4 rugrats moved in with me... a whole 'nother story... but I need a refresher on something. I have 2 bantams and just cleaned out the coop, which I keep pretty deep in wood shavings. I can put it in the compost bin, but is this poo I can put straight in the garden? It's pretty dry.
Thanks!
Just how hot is chicken poo?

According to that link, broiler litter's C:N ratio is between 12:1 and 15:1, while manure from laying hens is between 3:1 and 10:1. Bottom line? Muy caliente!
Thanks!
You're welcome!
