I live in a very uppity, rich area, full of environmentalists and just people trying to be more sustainable and such. Nothing wrong with that... I'm just giving you an idea of the area I live in. I try to be more self sustainable as well. I had one of these people ask a friend how much I charged for my duck manure for fertilizer. Not even a question of WHETHER I sold it or not.... Made me think, a lot of the garden centers here sell organic steer manure and it's quite popular. I was wondering if anyone sells their duck manure? I've found it to be great on my garden, and even with a lot of if mixed in it doesn't seem to burn sprouts or full grown plants. Does anyone think it would be worth trying? How much would I charge?
I was thinking maybe of covering my pen in sand, and raking up the manure. They free range in the day, but it still leaves a lot of poo in the pen. I think that would be the only way to gather it, other than laying concrete. And sand is great for compost...... Any thoughts here? Might also be an excuse to get more ducks.....
