    I have tried to research it but nothing seems to be super clear on how to do it and the pros and cons.
    Please share if you use it and how.

    Research "compost".

    Your chicken manure is a rich nitrogen source (green).

    Balance or offset it with "browns" (carbons) .

    Results are fabulous!
