Hi everyone, I was just wondering is it ok to use chicken manure on the vegetable patch as fertilizer:?:
We are getting four hens soon and I was wondering if I could use the waste product. Let me Know! _________________ "Press any key to continue, where's the any key?" - Homer |

Chicken Manure
Chicken manure is often sold in pellet form so it is easy and cleaner to handle.
It is very rich being high in nitrogen but it is lacking in almost all other nutrients. However it is very useful when used combined with other fertilizers.
Chicken manure must never be used fresh.
From here.. Organic Fertilizers
Found by inputting "chicken manure" in the site search (top right of page) It's very helpful you know.  _________________ How to post pics on the forum.
