Alternatives to horse manure

Umm.  Not really sure but as nobody else has replied.....

Yes you can use it as an alternative to horse manure BUT you need to know that it doesn't have aminopyralid (or whatever its called) - that herbicide weedkiller - in it. 

You are correct, you can't use it fresh.  I think it needs to rot down for a year first. 

I would store it in a heap.  You could just mix it into your compost and let it rot down with your compost (although if properly composted, usual garden compost rots down quicker.)

Hope that helps.

Thanks for your replies green owl/bombers. I'll need to clear some space on the lottie to pile up the manure to let it rot down.

I'll certainly try the tip for the sheep manure liquid fertiliser!!!
