Yes. Plow it under.

Goat, rabbit and guinea pig manures can be used straight from the pen - although if there is a lot of bedding, it should be aged for a few months - the urine soaked in it will need to age. The "pellets" are safe to apply as they are, at any time. The pig manure should be composted/aged for at least a few months or applied in the fall to age over the winter, and then plowed or tilled in.

If you are concerned about e-coli or other nasties you can always compost the bedding and manure for 90 days before you apply it. It should heat up until it is steaming hot.

We have horses, and I make two piles a year, a winter pile that we use in the spring and a summer pile that we use in the fall. I don't turn the pile, it's too big. You can cover the pile with a tarp to keep it from getting too dry or too wet. I wait until it sprouts mushrooms before I use it.

There are some serious composters on the composting forums, if you care to take a look. And Organic Gardening's website used to have a chart of the n-p-k ratio of different manures from different species. For us, with the horses bedded in sawdust, I use a little bone meal to even out the the n-p-k and give it a nitrogen boost.

Hope this helps!
