Lights can be fixed. Scott Can they? How? OH!!!!...just fixed it, there's a button that I didn't know the function of....until just now. Boy, do I feel like a DumbButt....but a happy one, haha! Thanks for making me look at it again @scottcaddy Nice work! And here I was going to say something...

I would say, yep! I could test this for you if my infrared's target light hadn't gone kaput.

Urine is much different than feces tho, suprised it didnt kill the plant. Parasites, if they're there, will be in the feces not the urine.

I didn't know you could plant carrots and turnips in fall. Do they need protection from the cold?.....when do you harvest?

Coop bedding compost up to 120F on day 3....and boyoboy does it stink!

I use the fencing cylinders, lined with feed bags too....but I set it up so I can unhook the fencing and open it up to shovel out. You could line the chain link too?

So I just chopped all this up (actually I didn't do it, a very fit, strong and energetic friend did it for me) and mixed it with some garden soil and some fresh grass clippings.....it filled that new 'bed'....which I almost turned into a multi sectioned compost bin like Kusanar just described...

Guess we should specify brown or green . About the only green I have available would be grass clippings, or fresh chicken poop, I don't generate much kitchen waste, what little I do goes right to the chooks.

Well it is all organic material :D....some wood shavings in there not yet broken down too. Was going to add some of the soil from the old garlic bed surrounding the new raised bed..... thought I could plant some cold weather stuff in there yet this year.... .... but maybe the new 'garden bed'...

Got to the old piles yesterday, to put the 'soil' into the newly fabricated raised bed/cold frame.... ....think they may be useless as is tho. Solid, dry mass of 'roots', tho now greenery growing from said roots.... maybe growing up from nearby trees. Not sure what to do with it at this...

The 13 cuft of bedding along with 10 gals of water cooked up to 160F within 24 hours. Tho I didn't keep it hot all the way thru by turning, try to do better with that this time. The deck that failed was at least 20 year old cedar or redwood untreated for 15 years that I've had it, what failed...

Probably not....but.....will probably set the annual fall coop clean out to hot compost again, after I see what the 2 that I did last year look like. Too many other projects going, front deck falling apart has trumped all other projects at this time.

Sounds good!! Wish you lived nearby, I could use some of that to fill the new raised beds I'm planning this fall.

It is, isn't it?! Water and that bunny pee will keep things cooking.

Is the pipe at the bottom of pile? I guess there's no substitution for complete turning of pile.

Maybe 3 or 4 perforated pipes(2"- 5cm dia) in the bottoms of boxes get some air in there? Perforations facing up into compost, both open ends of pipes exposed to air outside box? Might drain out any excess liquid too.
