How Much Chicken Poop Can I Add In My Tumbler Compost Unit?
Posted: Thu Dec 15, 2022 10:31 am
Hi, I have built two 55 gallon drum, "tumbler" composting units to generate much more compost than I have been producing in a ground bin.
My intention is to not only use all household scraps but to shred my now abundant "Amazon" cartons and have arranged with my local Dunkin Donuts shop for coffee grounds.
I have 4 chickens that provide me with poop but can not find "amount" info.
If anyone has experience with something similar, please help.
My main question is how much chicken poop can I regularly add?
I use a poop shelf with a dusting of Pine Shavings. Any and all suggestions re: "Tumbler" blends and use welcome.
