Composting spent layers (or disaster losses)

Description

Composting poultry mortalities has been proven to be a viable disposal option. Most composting system designs are based on daily flock mortalities and usually involve covered bin facilities. However, the same composting techniques can be used for high mortality numbers, such as for disaster losses or for spent layer flocks, using an outside compost windrow. The following is the current recommended procedure for composting spent hens or disaster losses.
