kannie Posted February 17, 2007 Share Posted February 17, 2007 I seem to remember someone saying that layers mash doesn't compost well. Our chooks have made a thick compacted layer of hemcore, poo, and mash on the run floor. It's quite smelly underneath. Do you think this will compost OK? Seems a shame to waste all that lovely poo & hemcore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin B Posted February 17, 2007 Share Posted February 17, 2007 I think it would be ok to use. Not an exper though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lindy Loo Posted February 17, 2007 Share Posted February 17, 2007 We have lots of great compost and all the hemcore, bits of layers mash and poo all contribute to the mix. I also put on all my uncooked vege matter, some newspaper and also some shredded paper along with all the garden cuttings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted February 17, 2007 Share Posted February 17, 2007 Me too lindy - mine seems to rot down well. In fact, I've just cleaned out the run and laid new Aubiose; I forked it over and took off the top inch of soil and compacetd stuff and put it straight on the garden. The aubiose seems to compost like a dream. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
