ems Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 Ok, now I've read alot about chicken poo, and have a good wormery established.. so I was wondering if anyone here composted the chicken poo in their wormery? Some ppl think that the nitrogen is too much for the worms, but surely as my birds are eating bokashi, and I do also use bokashi in the wormery.. anyone any thoughts? I could also leave the chicken poo in a bokashi bin for a week and then give it to the worms.. hmm? Thing is, now I have the chickens, and I also have rabbits, all the s"Ooops, word censored!"s seem to be accounted for ... poor worms Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 You can certainly add chicken poo to the wormery, but I'd mix it with other stuff rather than jusy having the poo on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiggy Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 I give my worms poo,bedding, any left overs from the chickens (left overs!!!!) they do leave cabbage stalks and other bits & bobs sometimes, and anything the chooks cannot eat such as avacado skins and raw potatoe peelings onion skins Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ems Posted February 3, 2009 Author Share Posted February 3, 2009 ahh brilliant!, now do you put the poo straight in when you clean out or do you leave it else where first to mulch down a little bit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiggy Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 I put it straight in mixed with bedding/shredded paper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 I share the poo and Aubiose mix between the wormery and the compost. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
