The Carbon/Nitrogen ratio is a good point. Newspapers typically have a
C/N ratio of 175 (175/1). to counter balance this you should use 8.3 lbs
of chicken fertilizer (C/N: 7 - 6) per pound of newsprint. Aiming for an
end C/N ratio of 25.
C/N ratio = C/N(175 + X7)/(X+1) where X = number of lbs of chicken
manure.
C/N ratio = C/N(175 + 7X)/(X+1) = C/N 25
C/N 25 = C/N(175 + 7x)/(X+1)
25X + 25 = (175 + 7x)
18X = 150
x = 8.333 lbs (3.8 kg) of chicken manure per pound (.454 kg) of newsprint
