RE: RABBIT MANURE SOLAR OVENS?

in #homesteading7 years ago

The only part of the plan I'm worried about is separating the liquid from the solids. That's going to be an incredibly messy and most likely smelly project. Remember, I'm a pet sitter. I've dealt with runny poo. Even veggie-based diarrhea is yuck. Just ewww... Lol!

I'll stayed tuned for that part, because I think it's going to be highly entertaining. You're a brave man, @papa-pepper.

Oh, and I'll say it now - better you than me.

;~D

Sort:  

I will drain the liquid onto existing plants, as a liquid fertilizer. The remaining manure will be applied to the soil where I will plant.

I'm sure the plants will absolutely love it and the grass seeds will be ancient history.

My only concern was prep for application is going to be - 'aromatic' at the very least. Fermented grass clippings/rabbit poo is bound to have a strong odor.

Maybe a cheese-cloth type strainer over the top will make it more manageable? Honestly, I'm trying to think ahead & suggest an option that might help...

NO problem, I understand. I've dealt with enough soupy rabbit poop in my time to not really be worried, but I get where you are coming from.
