Zoo Doo...Better than other Poo?

So I read the post Roadkill put up the other day regarding the Zoo Doo offered at Seattle's woodland park zoo. Would this type of Poo be more ideal than say Tenn Stud's Poo, or any other type of manure? The reason I ask is because Zoo Doo is a mixture of many different types of animal waste (exotic animal waste I might add ) and I am under the impression that not all type of animal poo are ideal for mushroom cultivation.
So, If I can go home in a week and get a couple buckets of this stuff for cheap, should I do that before ordering from Tenn Stud, or going out and find poo in my area?
Thanks everyone

Thank you both for bringing this to my attention. I'm too lazy to do agar's compost tek. But his newest NO GRAIN SPAWN and zoo doo may be just the ticket for me. I'm just a ferry ride from Seattle, so thank you guys, and thanks RoadKill!!!

So since the ZooDoo is already hydrated, does it still need to be pasteurized like you would normally?

It's compost, not hot, steaming goat custards.
Quote:
Woodland Park Zoo Doo is a fully composted blend of animal manures mixed with straw bedding, grass, leaves and wood chips from the grounds of Woodland Park Zoo. Which animals contribute to WP Zoo Doo? All the non-primate herbivore (plant eaters) animals are happy to doo their part. These animals include, elephants, hippos, zebras, giraffes, gazelles, oryx, ponies and others.
Creating Compost at the Zoo The Zoo Doo process begins when fresh manure and straw bedding are collected from animal enclosures. Next, leaves, wood chips and other organic materials from the zoo grounds are combined with the manure and straw mixture. When this material is watered and piled into long rows, it quickly heats up, reaching 150+ degrees! The high temperatures destroy pathogens and weed seeds. The piles are turned and watered until the mixture becomes dark and crumbly, bearing little resemblance to the original components. After three months, the compost is cool and ready for use in home gardens.

they sell something called ZooDoo...
but is it really ZooDoo?
I have been wondering about this for a few days now.
ZooDoo is a registered product so if they are selling elephant manure as ZooDoo I'm sure that will catch up with them eventually.

It's the real deal, sold to us as Zoodoo
We simply hydrate, supplement, adjust PH, and pasteurize it!
