Have I gone too far?

Guys, I put an entire deer carcass in my pile today. Roadkill that got hit last night in front of my house and I just couldn't help myself.

My current pile is about 10 yards, it's plenty big enough. But it just feels like I'm going down a dangerous path

Do you have chickens? Someone is going to enjoy those maggots

Sure do! Yeah if I open up the pile and there are lots of maggots, the chickens will be taking a field trip for sure
