My Guinea Pig (Bryony) produces loads of activator for my compost bins. I stew it with water in a bucket for a few days and then gently drizzle it over the top of the heap!
Apparently my grandfather would stand on the pavement and 'guard' horse droppings deposited in the road by tradesmen's horses - when Ma arrived home from school it was her job to shovel it up into the bucket for Grandfather's rosebed.

Rag and bone men round here until about five years ago. Odd bit of police horse droppings and chavvy funerals now but you'd get run over if you tried to harvest it

Lovely!
Thanks Hosta. Wondered if it was some niche addative
Rabbit, guinea pig and goat droppings are particularly high in nitrogen and very good for making compost
I believe sheep droppings to be equally wonderful

I'll take my dustpan and brush on my next trip through the ashdown forest. Plenty of sheep currants there
I'm clearly showing my age, but I never saw anything horse drawn .
apart from those east end chavvy funerals on telly.
Neither have I HF and I'm no Spring chicken....I'm not on my last legs either though.
