I found the perfect place to get horse shit - some advice needed though

ive been hiking around a lot these last couple weeks, yesterday i found a new trail leading to the property of a childhood friend i had. i'm not sure if he lives there anymore, and i know his dad died of cancer last year, so i believe it's just his wife/step mother living there. anyway, whatever. that doesn't matter.
in the very back of their property is a horse area, and i saw many fresh or semi-fresh piles of shit. i remember reading that i wanted the poo that had been lying around for awhile, or is that not accurate and do i want the freshest stuff out there?
i'm going to start collecting it in trash bags a little at a time and just bring it back to my house. should i then leave it lay under the sun to dry it out completely? like store it all on a tarp until it's time to pc. should i cover it with anything, or just let the weather and bugs do what they will with it?
i haven't even begun a grow this year yet, i've still yet to inoculate any jars and i'm not sure if my syringes are still viable. hopefully they are so i can start a lc, should do that today maybe.
but yea, main question is what is the best poo (aged wise) to collect?
how many (large trash bags) do you think would be needed (filled) to cover 50 gallon tubs for the mono or double tub teks?
thx

you want aged horse poo.
you can collect fresher stuff...and dry it out on a tarp in the sun.
I suggest going to the owner of the land and asking permission to collect some horse poo for your garden or for your roses.

well it's somewhat of a (given permission), i basically grew up there.
so i can collect both aged and fresh, and just put it together and lay on tarp in sun? the fresh will become aged through this process?

Incorrect: Take the aged\leeched (dry, powdery, smells like good soil) and save it aside.
"if it´s fresh poo, it needs to be leached and can also be dried. pick off any rocks and foreign matter whether fresh or dry: leaching is just soaking out the ammonia from animal urine - some farm animals have worse manners than rugby fans, and will piss and shit down their legs with gay abandon. You don´t need to bother with old poo, as it´ll have probably been leached by the rain. Soak the poo in water for about 24 hours and then drain it good.
some dry it out on a tarp in the sun/air, and some even use a box with a fan. don´t use an oven - think of the people who share the oven! it´s a good idea to break the poo up as it dries. To speed up the drying, you could break it up into small pieces at least the size of a golf ball, and break a few open every now and then to check to see what the moisture level inside the poo is like.
when the poo is dry, whether it was born a day or a year ago, you can store it, or use it rightaway! wanna skip the drying stage? okay, that´ll work "

Good luck! Have fun! PM me if you need any help w/ your poo method or need it to be optimal.
