[QUOTE="simme, post: 1833323, member: 40418"] The litter is already piled up outside uncovered? I have experience with broiler litter, but not turkey litter. My concern would be the loss of nutrients being piled up and getting wet and turning to mush. I would be inclined to spread it now, but you will lose a lot of the nitrogen by spring. I assume the grass is fescue? Just prior to greenup is a good time to spread litter. Does the litter have a lot of shavings that are not broken down? I can't zoom and see much detail. The color makes me think it might have a lot of shavings. Visible shavings in the litter decreases the fertilizer value. [/QUOTE]
