Farming- a bunch of catastrophies that result in a lifestyle

I have access to all the Llama poop a girl can haul home. It's been aged a little over a year. I've done some reading on llama poop, but it seems to be a toss up. What are your opinions on it? The poop I mean, not that articles.

what a crappy subject --lol
on the surface i dont see any problems with it. aged manure is aged manure.
the only manure id pass on is horse (road apples) because of so many weed seeds.never used it though.
lots of deer droppings in our patch from last fall and early spring after hurds feeding off the winter rye and hairy vetch. never hurt us so far.

Llama should be similar to Alpaca I would think.They say it doesnt need to age.Not sure though,you,d better double check. It should be a good! Poop is Poop!All long as there eating green stuff or grain.I think I will spread some Alpaca in my raised Giant Watermelon patch this year.I hope this is the year I get my poop in a group!!!lol

LLAMA is like giant rabbit poop...awesome stuff It is slightly higher in Nitrogen. Like a 1.5-.7-.7 fertilizer we use to spread it directly in the field as it is a cold manure. Aged should be just perfect..and well balanced

This is technically Alpaca. I go tomorrow to get a trailer load of it. Planning to incorporate 2" into soil. I finished the last spot today with deeply buried fish parts from the local seafood place. I figure come about august those should provide a nice kick of calcium and the blood and bone meal should do them good from the broken down fish. You should have heard that conversation w the local seafood house!! You do WHAT???

Wait a minute Pap, so your saying that you have deer coming into your patch, eating the cover crop, then poop'n it out and then you and Ron get fertilazatition value out of it? That's genius!
Do you consider that to be an advanced fertilization plan?
