I have a 3 garden plots that are roughly 20x20 each. The soil here in Hawaii is clay. I amended 2 of the plots with about 40 cubic feet of cow manure. However, the 3rd plot has really bad soil. It's been neglected for a long time and will require a lot of compost.

I have a friend that works at the Honolulu Zoo and she said that I can have as much Elephant, Giraffe and Rhino dung as I want. I assume that their manure would be fine once composted but wanted to double check.

Anybody ever try the exotic dung?
