Tomato plants thrive on quail manure

[CovidtimeQuail]

This is my Cherokee Purple Tomato plant. I repotted it with the bottom 1/3 filled with bedding harvested from the quail run. It was topped with potting soil and drains into a container under it. The bedding was not aged prior.

At the end of the day, if there is liquid under the plant, I fertilize other plants with it. Uncovered, it can be smelly, so letting it drain into a covered bowl helps. I think that having it under the potting soil buys some time for the quail mulch to compost so it doesn't get too hot and burn the plant.
