They sure do! I wish I could get a couple loads of that.
There are a couple things to remember. Chicken manure is more potent
than horse or cow manure so use sparingly. Also, be careful if there is
any wood shavings or sawdust or anything mixed with it. These two things
can take a long time to break down and can actually reduce your nitrogen
levels as they do.
