The photos and descriptions are great. I would love to see a few paragraphs written up summarizing the build to put a nice bow on it.

EDIT:
@Eagleeyeice went through and added a bunch of detail to this. Be sure to see what was said at each stage with the photos.

I agree, and if I did it over I'd do it differently. SO I'm gonna try to add info to the pages when I have time and figure out how.

Well written article with a lot of information without overwhelming the reader. Included photos are clear, well lit, and provide great visual aids to the topic. This is an overall great read. 5 stars.

Thank you so much! I hope it can help people that are thinking about geese or acquired some without knowing the ins and outs of keeping them.
Looks like a nicely built coop, but this article is lacking any details or information. If you added a description, some dimensions (or a build plan), build photos, materials list, etc..., It woudl go a long way towards improving this article.

Great looking tractor project. The photos are good and give an excellent idea of the finished product. Your description complements the photos well and tells a good story.

As you wrap up this project, please consider adding a photo of your building plans to give others an idea of dimensions if they're planning their own tractor, as well as some photos of the finished product in action.

Very creative and functional. Good information in the article and between that and the video you get a good idea of how to try this on your own. I wish the majority of the photos were larger. Even on a large desktop PC display they're small. Other than that, nice article!

Informative article. There are a number of repetitions early on that could be streamlined a bit. Also the section on shredded leaves has some conflicting discussion about storage being both dry and moist at the same time. Overall the content is very informative. With a little streamlining and some attention in the leaves section this is great.

This is a good place to start. A backup chicken tender and a checklist to mske their lives easier is always a plus, and gives the keeper peace of mind in case they have an emergency and cannot tend their flock for a period of time.

Well designed and constructed coop which flows with the space. Lots of progress pics and great descriptions. The inclusion of plans would knock this out of the park.

The photos of this completed coop look great. The article could use a lot more detail, however. Dimensions, interior shots, and photos of the build's progress would go a long way here. Bonus points for coop plans. It's clear a lot of care went into this build and the new inhabitants will enjoy it for sure.

This is a good looking small coop design. With the dimensions mentioned in the article it would house 3-4 birds (about 37 sq feet incl. space under the coop). I would have liked to see more photos of the construction process, however. Perhaps in a future update?

Great way to upcycle an old swingset, and for 130 bucks you did a great job of building a secure coop. The progress and completed photos are nice. Would like to see the interior shots and maybe a sketch of the plans, but those are "nice to have" bits. Well done!

Great Build! Lots of detailed photos and a sketch of the floor plan helps if another member wants to try and build something similar.I like the idea of using the feed bags as a makeshift moisture barrier, that's a creative and practical way to recycle them. I would have liked to read some more about the materials and budget, and have some more detailed descriptions with the photos, but it does not hurt the article overall.

Great build and a great write-up!
