Best Answer

you can get it at your local Petland or ace hardware but if you are referring to where ammonia comes naturally, then ammonia is a common byproduct of animal waste due to the often inefficient conversion of feed nitrogen (N) to animal product (Bicudo et al., 2002). Livestock and poultry are often given high protein feed containing surplus N to meet the animals' nutritional requirements. N that is not metabolized into animal product (i.e., milk, meat, or eggs) is excreted in feces as NH3, urea, and organic N and in urine as urea (in mammals) or uric acid (in birds).
