Chicken Manure

Question

Can I use fresh chicken manure in my garden if I lime it and till it in?

Answer 1

Fresh chicken manure is extremely high in nitrogen and will burn plant seedlings. However, as long as you till it into your soil and allow it to sit a little while prior to planting, it should be ok to do so. You can also choose to compost it.
