| A a small Pumpkin Growers Meeting recently a grower made this comment. They were waiting for the Farmer to finish feeding the cows so the manure could be loaded. They watched as the feed was shoved out then took a small shovel of something else, the grower asked what's that? It's antibiotics that are mixed with the feed, the grower cringed. What goes in one end may come out the other and antibiotics would probably have a negative effect on your soil bacteria. I have switched back to Chicken Manure from my own Chickens that I know what's in it.
