When I could get chicken manure free or at very low price I used it regularly in soil preparation but I still used Texas Tomato Food regularly as a weekly or bi-monthly for the best results. My inexpensive local supply is no longer available so I use more cottonseed meal now in my soil prep.
I got a 100 lbs of pelleted chicken manure free one time and it worked very well and was much easier to use and much nicer to handle. If you can get it cheap I would certainly try it. One caution with any form of chicken manure and that it over use can be harmful to the soil texture and nutrient balance.
