I would be worried about inhaling the dust from unaged chicken manure as much as burning my plants. You can ingest histoplasmosis spores and get very ill. Folks who don't have a clue about gardening..(newbie listeners to the show) could threaten the health of themselves or their families.....think of a toddler 'helping' to make a garden with it's parents.....YIKES!! Without proper education the use of any chemical can be dangerous. And that's exactly what manure is...
And no, I would never use unaged chicken manure around green plants...(and we have a great number of commercial chicken farms in the area with free manure)...I won't even handle the stuff myself...there's plenty of other poo that I've got access to that's safer.
