Cow shite, a little chicken shite, and a tiller makes some super duper arse fertilizer. Good luck keeping the weeds out though.

Poultry droppings are better manure than cow dung (or other farmyard manure) in nitrogen, phosphorous and potassium content.

Dried poultry manure is two to three times as rich as cow manure in inorganic fertilizer content.

There are several effective methods-ESPECIALLY if it's a small garden. Mulch, weed screen, etc. Grass clippings,as a mulch, will start to build up that perfect soil for the future.

How do you prep your poultry droppings to use in your garden? I have 4 chickens and have yet to really get a system going.

I have made a manure tea a couple times to sprinkle on my plants, but would like to eventually get a composter to break it down.
