We certainly want to get a tractor at some point, the one we want is the smallest with a front loader type attachment. Those run easily 10k or more new. It will be a few years so for now guess I'll just burn the calories. Pretty happy we decided to go with a smaller property than the 20 acres or more we were hoping to find! LOL. Can you imagine???

I have a similar manure pile but the tarp fell apart and it rained so much it grew grass all over the top, so it's not composting at all. I gave up and now I just take the wheelbarrow down the hill and dump it under the trees and sort of spread it around and hope no one complains because of the fish ponds down there. Getting the empty wheelbarrow back up the hill empty is hard because it's so steep and muddy. If I'd known how inconvenient it is to have horses on such a slanted piece of land, I would have never tried. Live and learn. And since we sold the horse and only have one donkey, it's remarkable how much less poop there is, what you are experiencing now in reverse. lythahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01719586193059362084noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6773294397639465084.post-54422552153478391722015-11-11T18:17:32.936-05:002015-11-11T18:17:32.936-05:00Something to help with watering it in is a pvc pip...Something to help with watering it in is a pvc pipe in the center wit holes drilled in. You just put your hose in the pipe to more evenly wet it. I used to rototill my cooked piles. Neighbors had no idea it was apples.
