Compost ?

[only one lay]

Started a pile with the chick and other yard stuff. First time building compost for use. Searched and can't info on dog stuff.
Useable in pile or not? Dogs are fenced and I get the priviliage(sp) of cleaning either way. Thanks

ed- should this question be somewhere else?

Dog poop....

Most carnivore poop takes a lot longer to decompose. Im pretty sure they dont recommend you put it in the faster decomposing pile. Leaves, goat/rabbit/chicken poop, food scraps, and things like that should be in their own pile. You can *probably* compost the dog poop but it will take a lot longer and is going to sttiiiiiiink. Maybe?

I throw mine on the burn pile...so it gets burned.

You know, for some reason that I dont really understand, I just cant make myself really consider doing that. Thats weird huh? Not gonna do it, not me.

No...the poo gets dried out pretty much mixed with the tree branches and leaves...and the smoke is what overpowers most of anything...
