Brand new old compost pile, and chicken manure on the lawn

[chickenwhisperer]

So, the pile in my pic above is the wooden bin, thats the stuff from the middle of my original "wild" pile, stuff that was in the middle and most-broken-down when I started messin with it(hence this entire thread).

That bin has now stopped heating up and remained cool after the last turn a day or so ago.

However, tho it is all broken-down and crumbly and unrecognizable as what it all was, it doesnt seem broken-down enough for my tastes/likeing.

What are my options to get the stuff in that bin to heat up one more time?
a- add chicken/rabbit/quail poop
b- add lawn mower leavins
c- turn it one more time and be done with it afterwards
d- ???

Lol, in honor of Hoodat, I peed on it about an hour ago . . .

I'm really liking this thread. The pictures of your chicken wire and box compost pile was great.

and the pee'ing comments, well I just about fell out of my chair laughing, but seriously I'll have to convince my husband to do that for me.
