    Can I use goat droppings?
    Community Answer
    Yes, droppings from any grass-eating animals will work, just leave it to dry and mature a bit before spreading it on the soil. The only droppings you don't want on your soil are from carnivores, since they may contain parasites you don't want in your garden.
