CFS chicken manure pellets average a 4% Nitrogen, 3% Phosphorus, and 2% Potassium analysis, though we do not guarantee an analysis. Manure is manure, we do our absolute best to make a consistent pellet day in and day out.
A typical analysis is around a 4/3/2. Our pellets do vary in moisture depending on the time of year, but they’re typically around a 12% moisture level. They should be free of weed seeds, and easy to handle.
We recommend spreading with a poultry style litter spreader, such as a Chandler. With that being said, any pull type broadcast spreader should work. Please ask if you are concerned that your spreader may not work!
