Parsnips

They say that you shouldnt use manure when growing
Parsnips & Carrots.
I was wondering weather this includes Chicken Manure Pellets
or would it be ok to use it ??

Fresh manure is supposed to make root crops fork (its not about the taste) - not sure how true this is but I would say if your chicken manure pellets are just lightly raked into the surface between the rows (not directly into the seed drills) you should not have problems.
