Nope, no BS, honest, just horse S and a little goat S. I don't 
especially like keeping cattle. Besides, come butchering time, I'd be 
fighting off PeTA, etc. types with a stick. Plus, cow S can get 
_really_ stinky.

Over the years there've been 30-some horses go through here. Wife used 
to buy one, train it up, and sell it. Repeat as necessary -- or ad 
nauseam.:)

Since our last manure customer can't load any longer and neither can I, 
it's accumulated over the past 10-odd years. I'd like to find a 
mushroom grower or something to take it away.

We use wood shavings bedding, so there's not any contaminants in it. I 
suppose it'd be adequate for either mushroom growers or federal 
officials. Either treats its constituency the same; Keep 'em in the 
dark and feed 'em horsecrap.

We do work at keeping the odors down. Heck, one neighbor complained to 
the Health Dept. because she thought it would contaminate her well. The 
Inspector complimented us on keeping it well contained and dismissed 
the complaint.
