I'm not much of a baker, but with the milk scaled and cooled to gently warm the custard did not break and the custard was not soggy.

I cut the sugar back some since it seemed like an awful lot compared to other custard recipes and it was good that way.

Don't over-cook it.

Should be handy when the standard emojis don't go far enough.

Entertaining.

But the quotes section might be broken up a bit to reduce the Wall-O-Text appearance. :)

Well-designed, well-built, and well-documented. A terrific coop!

Tip: Get the self-tapping screws for the metal and use a cordless impact driver. No predrilling needed.

Nice overview of the showing process. It would be helpful to have some explanation of how to compare your bird to the SOP and photos of the process of washing the bird and trimming up the beak and nails.

Clever repurposing of junk.

My only concern is that the dresser appears to be made of some kind of pressed fiber material, not even chipboard, and you didn't do anything to improve it's ability to resist water.

Your coop and it's bedding may be perfectly dry at all times so you didn't need to, but noting the potential issue would have been helpful to people considering this nestbox option.

Thank you, very good point. I will update if there is a problem with moisture.

A very clever lawn ornament, but as a coop it lacks basic features, especially VENTILATION.

Needs plans, dimensions, etc. if someone wanted to duplicate it.

Excellent overview of the brooding setup.

I particularly appreciate your explanation of the space needed because I've seen so many photos of chicks packed into tiny plastic tubs long after their horizons should have expanded.

Such a wonderfully useful article.

I just put 24 eggs into my 22 egg Nurture Right 360 and needed to know how soon I'm going to be able to see development well (I'm expecting some infertile eggs due to my rooster-to-hen ratio).

Nice evaluation of your personal experience. It would be good to have a little more science about laying, etc. and it would make it more personal if you took photos of your own lovely ladies instead of using stock photos like the Murray McMurray catalog photo of the BO. :)
