Great article! A reminder to people that "factory settings" isn't perfect for everyone, and instructions should be viewed more like suggestions.
Makes good points and food for thought in terms of selecting birds for breeding.

Wonderful way of learning about a handful of chicken breeds. Subjective (in a good way) and personal, and thrown in a few chicken facts as well.

Ameraucanas, Araucanas, Easter eggers, and Olive eggers, Oh my!

Excellent article, though it could easily be both longer and more detailed. Using positive reinforcement is the way to go in animal training!

Great article in outlining which roosters should be "allowed" to breed. A lot of behavior is genetic, and even though handling (or mishandling) can change a rooster's behavior, going for the nice and natural behaving ones to repopulate the flock is a good way to ensure naturally behaving roosters in the future.
