Chickens all want to stay in the doorway!

[welovemarmite]

what do you do with it - we have quite a bit as we have a walk in run!!!!

[Ain't Nobody Here]

I put some in the compost bins (I now have 2) but I recently started putting it straight onto the flowerbeds. It makes them look very tidy (it hides the weeds ).

compost bin, it makes fantastic compost and breaks down really quickly.

 

alternatively dig a trench where you want next year's runner beans to grow, and start filling it up with aubiose.

we put ours on Freecycle - you know "Chicken Compost and bedding - great for compost" I always have more than enough takers!!

same here, I never have a problem, it goes the day I list it.

[Space Chick]

I save the hemcore from the poo trays for the compost, the WIR soiled bedding I take down the councils green recycling centre

What a brill idea

[Egluntyne]

I do what ANH does. It does make the garden look tidy.

[poachedegg]

Ours goes on the borders too.

I started by Freecycling but now I have three ladies that take it in turns

 

They responded to my first freecycle add and said that they would take as much as I had!

 

I just do a run clean, leave the bags out the front, ping an email and when I get home from work the next day the poop is gone!

 

In fact.....the poo is almost as popular as their eggs!

[chick wiggle]

Funnily enough we just cleaned ours out today. OH put it all on his vegetable beds, flower beds and compost bins. it all went on there and we have quite a large WIR.

[TAJ]

We have 4 compost bins and share it around them, plus deep trench grow stuff on the allotment - the potatoes grown on a trench of this were so much bigger than the others - it is put straight into trench, not composted first.

I thought about doing that but what about the flies or do you just do it in Autumn/Winter?

[stoice]

I like the sound of throwing on the borders but have a pooch with a poop fettish and i just know she'd hoover it all up. I like the trench idea though. Has anyone noticed increased foxy attention by spreading it around their garden though?

[Cinnamon]

I am planning to put some between the rows of Garlic I have just planted,as a nutrient & hopefully a weed suppressant too.

It may even work at keeping slugs at bay,as they don't like to go over loose stuff....

 

Have got rid of it on Freecycle too, & I new have a list of contacts who are waiting for it (I have a huge walk in run,so we get very large job lots of it,several times a year)

[Ain't Nobody Here]

I certainly haven't noticed any flies. To be honest the poop is all dried up by the bedding so there are no obvious clumps of it anyway .

[Plum]

Thanks, Do you dig/rake it in or leave it on the surface?

[Ain't Nobody Here]

Too lazy to dig it in . Sprinkle and go .

[Plum]

Well I've seen pictures of your borders you've posted. Good enough for me.

[kevtheplumber]

everything goes down the allotment in the bins, looking good now
