Chicken poo, yes i know use horse poo BUT will it work

OOOK. So I finally got my buddy with a car to take me shopping for stuff, it took 2 hours to track down vermiculite, then he refused to go to a farm for good poo. So lowes had a huge bag of some stuff called cockadoodledoo. anyone familar with this stuff. Looked like the best they had so i grabbed it without thinking. Of course after a few mninutes of reading, I see NO, NO, NO, NO, maybe, etc.
Well from what i read it seems the reason for it being bad is its so high in N, correct? ok so i research this stuff. And heres what i get.
Cockadoodle DOO Organic Lawn & Garden Fertilizer has been sterilized and dehydrated in large industrial kilns for successive periods of time at extreme temperatures so that all harmful nitrates, pathogens and bacteria are extracted. The final product has virtually no odor in its kiln-dried granular state and will not burn grass or plants. In fact, the product is so gentle that application is recommended while planting grass seed or seedlings of any kind. Our Organic Lawn & Garden Fertilizer offers the young seedlings an excellent food source for rapid growth as well as tremendous strength to the stalks and soon-to-be fruit bearing vines.
So what do you think? will i be alright mixing this with some verm and shitty walmart manuer(says 10% poo). No straw either, but hes the only one i can trust, and its his car.

If he's saying no to the straw because of the mess, go to a craft store (like michaels or something) they have mini-bales of wheat straw, up to 6" x 6" x 12". They are shrink wrapped and small, no mess. Expensive compared to real bales of straw,but considering you can get over 4 ounces from each one, it's not really that expensive.
If you do want to use the chicken poo mixed with verm mixed with walmart manure, you will be in uncharted territory. I suggest getting the straw.

It should work. Adding high nitrogen compounds, such as dehydrated seaweed or worm castings, seems to boost potency up a bit.

christ...thought i was new to this. anyway what preportions should i go with here. I'm thinking mostly the shitty poo a lil of the chicken to boost the nutes then a good amount of verm for fluffyness. I knwo not very professional things are just so difficult without a car when your in the middle of nowhere.
Just as a test i took a bit of my fully colonized corn mixed it with 1/8th chicken 2/8ths verm and the rest the composted manuer from walmart, i put all that in a jar. If i see some growth i'll go ahead. would rather not screwover my last 4 weeks of prep.

Well so far so good, the myc in the test jar doesn't seem to be affected by the chicken poo. Perhap its too soon to tell though. heres a pic it has been 24hrs. you can see the myc is just now starting to recover. I imagine by this time tomorrow we will have a more definative answer.

well we will see, i think the key here is that its been composted and processed so its not quite so harsh on the myc.
