New to Hot Bin, Can i compost horse manure and wood chip shvaings?

[jpinch]

Hi, I am looking at buying a hotbox, thinking i could use some horse manure and bedding wood chip as bulking material? Has anyone done this? thank you

I know a few folks that compost horse manure, though they take care to balance it with other material, kitchen scraps, hedge prunings, shredded cardboard etc. I would think like anything else, if you only try to compost one thing, you would probably run into some kind of issue. If I had access to horse poo I would certainly have no problem adding it to my composter.

thanks, yes was planning to mix, I have way too much for this box, but thought instead of buying the bulking agent. Thank you
