Wouldn't the animal (or fowl) it came from make a large difference?

Ten pounds nitrogen, five pounds phosphoric acid, and ten pounds potash.
We are all aware of the differing values of manure depending on the type of livestock from which it comes, making certain manure "hot manures" and others termed "cold manures" but I'm assuming the key word in the question was "average".
