Manure Wamming

[CustardPie]

On this thread, I have been told that sometimes at stables people get 'chucked on the muck heap' - can anyone confirm this is true (or better still send some photos!)

[centurychestwaders]

Any one into rubber suits and cow shit... Personnaly I love to get rubber up, some nice big chunky chestwaders and have good nightime wallow in the cow shit in the fields at night

Hayley

So where's the other one?

[mhalver]

Tracie and the Horse Manure was shot as a private movie but will be appearing as a download as soon as we get that sorted. We have a few other stills but not many.

PS Somebody told me horse is safer than cow...though god knows why!

So where is this going to be showing up at?

I have to admit that this a complete and utter turn-off for me but I accept that some people find it arousing. However, the health and safety implications are about as serious as you can get.

As someone said (sorry - mislaid it now) slurry tanks kill a surprising number of people each year. One of the problems is that you can become overcome by the fumes and then drown in it.

Thanks to The Bulber for sourcing my original post on the subject of cow dung at UMD. For anyone who missed it, this is what I said:

This is obviously a highly-specialised niche area of wam and one in which I wouldn't want to be involved, myself.

However, I would just like to make a sort of 'public information' announcement about the dangers involved in using cow dung. It's a prime source of the e-coli 0157 bacterium, which can be deadly, if not to you then to any children, elderly or frail people with whom you may come into contact.

http://www.cdc.gov/healthypets/diseases/ecoli.htm

http://www.cdc.gov/ncidod/dbmd/diseasei ... coli_g.htm

"While most people get E. coli O157 from contaminated food (such as undercooked ground beef), it also can be passed in the manure (feces) of young calves and other cattle. Animals do not have to be ill to transmit E. coli O157 to humans."

"Symptoms of E. coli O157 include watery or bloody diarrhea, fever, abdominal cramps, nausea, and vomiting. Illness may be mild or severe. Young children are more likely to have severe symptoms, including kidney failure, and die. "

"Although the number of organisms required to cause disease is not known, it is suspected to be very small.

Among other known sources of infection are ... ... swimming in or drinking sewage-contaminated water.

Bacteria in diarrheal stools of infected persons can be passed from one person to another if hygiene or handwashing habits are inadequate.
This is particularly likely among toddlers who are not toilet trained. Family members and playmates of these children are at high risk of becoming infected.

Young children typically shed the organism in their feces for a week or two after their illness resolves. Older children rarely carry the organism without symptoms. "

Thank you Mr Health & Safety. We have had that warning before.

I think everyone is aware of the dangers and we are not recommending it, except in the form already mentioned.

Some people like it and I am happy to let themshare their interests.

[Lizzie_Claymore]

I agree Bill. If people really want to do that then it's entirely up to them.

However, it's human nature on forum boards for people to read an initial post then skip to the latest, missing out all the stuff in the middle. I was getting the impression from recent posts that this is what had happened here, so people wouldn't necessarily have seen that health info.

The other reason I posted this was because Bulber had kindly referred to its previous incarnation on UMD but not included all the detail (just the links) and my own thoughts are that it's better for people to be fully informed before the event so that they can make up their own minds based on the evidence, rather than wishing that someone had pointed it out to them.

As you were.

[centurychestwaders]

Some people seem to missing the point. Agreed its very messy and yes to some disgusting, but we love it.
Having worked on farms for some considerable part of my life and spent most of it up to my knees in cow slurry have never suffered any ill effects.
As you can see by my /our profile rubber has a large part in our playtime.
Usual attire for a slurry wallow includes a rubber catsuit, chestwaders, rubber jacket, rubber gauntlets and a gasmask. How does the muck get on your skin or in hailed in anyway???????
As hayley I am sure has played in cow muck and other equally filthy substances am sure she has not suffered.
Play in rubber and be safe!!!!

[Hayley]

I have been in 'mucky' fields and used rotted horse manure by the sackful, and am still alive. For God's sake don't try and eat it though! Certainly in rubber, I reckon you are pretty safe.

Love
Hayley

PS You must send in some pics some time.

[ManInMessyKnickers]

I'd love to get messy in all that shitty stuff. I'd never want it in my mouth so i reckon it must be alright otherwise. I used to get deep cuts with mud in them playing rugby and never got infected etc. So having a bit of cow/horse shit on my body can't be all that bad. Plus how fantastically amzing would it be!?

I'm so with you on all your dirty, nasty messy fun Hayley. x

[messyalan]

I have played with cow poo but been careful to keep it on the outside of my clothes. Have played with other forms of poo as weel but always carefully. It is the ultimate mess and it has to be done on smart new white clothes!
Not poo but sileage is on my site at http://www.wtanmse.co.uk/michelle/gallery06/gall06.htm if anyone wants to look.

[Richard]

Alan, that is the most awesome website I have seen for ages! I can hardly believe what I have just seen with my own eyes. Thank you for sharing with the whole world, and thanks especially to Michelle, who must be a most wonderful lady!
