Is it weird I clicked on the picture of poop to enlarge it
I'm not near the level I'd like to be. Right now we're just trying to manage the manure from the horses. But I'm so impressed what happens to a pile of mostly manure when you simply heap it and let it set for a year or so. My pile is so much smaller, and besides all the fist sized river rock we wound up with, it's beautiful looking compost.
I want to try to figure a way to incorporate my chickens into my garden this year, probably utilizing tractors. My property is long and narrow, so the garden is too far from the house for good predator management. The dog focuses mostly on the house and barn area, he only goes to the garden if I go, for the most part.
