Are chicken droppings mixed with shavings toxic to horses?
While a horses digestive system can tolerate much and the shavings themselves should pose no problems. The chicken droppings can contain disease, not to mention high concentrations of uric acid. Like all compost, the manure pile is not a good place to let the horse graze. Many animals will eat or taste the feces of other species but it is a good idea to keep your horse away from this.
