Gardening Know How Questions & Answers - https://questions.gardeningknowhow.comHi I have a pile of horse manure in the garden and for the past three weeks turned it [twice] and covered it with black plastic also made a few holes [3] for aeration
The horse manure is still quite wet and I have not added any water to the pile
I feel I have done everything I can to get the process moving but to no avail
My question is p[ease ?

These sites have some information that may help you. They recommend adding other ingredients to the pile, like bedding material, wood chips, or plant material to aid the composting process.
