Are chicken droppings (poultry manure +pine wood shavings mix) safe as a vegetable and herb garden fertilizer?
Are chicken droppings safe as a vegetable and herb garden fertilizer? The mix is chicken droppings dried out pine wood shavings that was the bedding material used as a mulch in the garden.The birds are fed a vegetarian feed soy as the protein source and they get whatever kitchen scrappings non poultry and non red meat seafood, fish , bread and other carbs and starches, vegetables and fruits they LOVE watermelon LOL , etc.They are cage free in a large enclosure but no grass is in there so we occassionally let them free range the yard but usually just give them all the grass clippings which they eat for a few days until the grass completely dries out and becomes crispy. They eat whatever bugs and worms they find. Sometimes we give them scrambled eggs.So basically, their diet is MOSTLY carbs, starches, grains, and grass.So are their droppings safe for vegetable herb garden fertilizer?I'm assuming we'd just have to rinse everything of course, but what we're wondering now is if salmonella can be transferred from the droppings INSIDE the tomatoes and zuchinni and cayenne pepper plants we have planted.I'd just assume that the ammonia, ammonium nitrite and ammonium nitrate chemicals inside the droppings since birds expel urine through droppings as well would kill any Salmonella present, let alone the droppings being baked by the sun and weather should kill any salmonella.The pine shavings and manure was placed in the garden site back in March and it's been hit with full sun, frost, and heat from the sun plus LOTS of soaking rain I'm in New Jersey and we had LOTS of record rainfalls and flooding, I'm on a hill so we didn't flood but we did have the same amount of rain until Saturday when we planted the started plants and seeds.Plus, we put Lime and Sodium Dioxide diatomaceous earth...and lots of it on the shavings when we first lay them out in the shed and then in between when it starts to smell or flies build up as it dries all the droppings and kills any bugs that come in contact with it.Based on it being layed out it wasn't in a compost style pile , being weather for about two months and the lime and diatomaceous earth that was originally on it, it should be safe for the plants and we shouldn't have to worry about them getting burned from any ammonia or disease being transferred right?Right now all the plants still seem fine and healthy.Also are store bought poultry chicken and turkey fed medicated chick feed when they are chicks?Just wondering since people typically feed all baby chicks medicated feed when they young to protect them from disease.So are turkey and chicken chicks fed medicated chick feed in their first few weeks?We are growing out some heritage turkeys are may decide to have one prepared we couldn't do it LOL...we'd get too attached to them to do it ourselves, we still may not even decide to eat any at all to eat eventually after they mature.In case you're wondering these are the breeds Royal Palm, Naragansett, Bourbon Red, Black Spanish, and Blue Slate.
