Obtaining
Horse poop is a configurable value - if disabled none of your horses will poo. Frequency can also be increased/decreased.
Horses produce poo slowly over time - this frequency is determined by the server config. By default, they poo approximately every 30 minutes of being loaded. Horse poop can form a small cluster of multiple poops in the same or nearby area if a horse remains in one place for a long period of time.
Breaking
Left-click a pile of horse poop to break it and drop the item. If the poop has stacked, it may take multiple hits to get all the poop.
There is also a chance of horses breaking poo when walking over it - if this is not picked up it will despawn after some time.
Once broken the pile of horse poop is just an item, it cannot be placed down again and must be stored or added to the wheelbarrow.
Shown: A single Horse Poop (entity).
Usage
Right-click a wheelbarrow with Manure (poo) in hand to add it to the wheelbarrow. As more of these are added, the wheelbarrow will visually fill up. Once 8 materials have been placed in the wheelbarrow, the contents will disappear and 1 Wet Compost Block will be dropped.
Trivia
Horse poop is an entity rather than an item, which is why it displays with a title on Minimaps! This is actually very useful for finding poop in pastured amidst grass and foliage.
