funny for some? serious for others?

the other day i so a company selling alpaca poo, which had been made into Briquettes????

now iv come across this?

 

horse poo briquetts

 

Save money on heating bills

– burn horse manure!

Yes I know it sounds a bit smelly but apparently its not, and best of all its free!

 

Horse owners can actually make 'fuel bricks' from horse manure by packing the manure into a brick shape using a mould and then drying it out for a few weeks.

 

The bricks shouldn't give off any foul odours either because the odour evaporates when the manure is dried out. You can even use the ashes as a fertiliser to spread over your veg patch to grow your own veg!

 

So the next time you go out poo picking in the field just think of the money you will be saving in fuel bills! Its also a very eco- friendly way of heating your home.

 

 

Ingredients

 

Manure – horses, donkeys, ponies, goats, poultry

 

Brick mould / Briquette Maker

 

Log burning stove / Open fire

 

A strong stomach

 

 

Method

 

1) Shovel manure from stable / field

 

2) Pack the manure into the mould / briquette maker

 

3) Turn the moulded manure out

 

4) Stack each brick on top of each other in a criss cross pattern to allow air circulation

 

 

5) Leave bricks to dry out in a dry but ventilated area for 3 weeks

 

6) Take your poo bricks and burn – hey presto free fuel!

 

has anyone ever tried this?

what was your thoughts?

did it burn well?

what was the ash amount after it had burnt?

 

all comments good and bad welcome:biggrin:
