compost and manure?

I've just picked up some pallets and was planning on building a compost bin on the lotty. However I have also just picked up some horse manure and was offered as much as I want for free. Can I build a compost bin from the pallets and merely put both composatable materials AND manure in the same bin or do I need one for each??

Cheers

Thanks, just realised I didn't check...was logged in under claire account (Doodle!)

Think I'll just try and sort two bins out then? Or use one of the daleks?

Thanks oldbean but no thanks, I will compost most things but draw the line at human waste

Yeah, I spent a bit of time on the Isle of Mull where we ONLY had a compost toilet...not something I fancy re-visiting too soon! lol!!

I put layers of manure in my compost heap (i.e. alternating with layers of composting material) as an accelerator. I just stack the manure in a pile, and add to the compost heap as & when, and anything left in the manure heap goes onto the beds in the autumn.

Not sure I could be fagged to actually shovel it into a "bin"
