Beautiful coop & run. This article could be improved by adding more build details and a list of materials used.

Build details and larger pictures would improve this article.

Cute coop & run! To improve this article, I would add more pictures of it being built, written build details, and a list of the materials used.

Good start! To improve this article, I would replace all of the small pictures with larger ones, add more pictures of it being built, add written build details, and add a list of the materials used.

Informative and well-written.

Good start.

In common chicken diseases, you list bumblefoot, Newcastle, avian influenza, fowlpox, and coccidiosis. Of the five, coccidiosis is the most common.

How about Marek's, parasitism, egg binding, and mycoplasma?

The Chick Care section needs some edits.

• A brooder is needed, but does not have to be large, and it does not have to be round.
• Three to four inches of bedding is too deep for newly hatched chicks.
• You wrote: "Feed chicks a special crumble diet for the first few weeks of their life." & "Chicks should be transitioned to layer feed at 18 weeks old". That's confusing. Is it a few weeks or is it 18 weeks?
• "special crumble diet" should be "chick starter"

The Breeding and egg incubation section implies that chickens only breed three months of the year and does not explain that a hen lays an egg every 1-3 days, that they lay several eggs before going broody, or that some hens never go broody.

The How to care for disabled chickens section says "Most disabled chickens are permanently non-ambulatory". There are several non-ambulatory disabilities. For example: cross beak, one wing, one leg, & visually impaired.

Clever ideas!

Broken pictures.

Good start. I'm giving it a low rating because it looks like you copied and pasted the various diseases that poultry get without understanding which ones each species is more likely to get, and you left out ones that are very common with some species.

For example, turkeys are super susceptible to blackhead, but it's not mentioned, and quail are susceptible to ulcerative enteritis and that's not mentioned either.

Waterfowl - There is nothing about angel wing or niacin requirements.

Formatting - I find it difficult to read large blocks of text.

Spelling and grammar errors - I suggest running each page through something like Grammarly.

Make some changes and I will re-rate it.

Awesome article! Great format, pictures, and instructions. What a clever design!

This article needs pictures. Add them & I will re-rate it.

Good start. This article could be improved by fixing the spelling and grammatical errors, and like @BantyChooks suggested, adding info about meat spots, calcium deposits, & fart eggs.

Additionally, add a link to one of BYC's threads or articles about actual egg problems.

If you fix the spell & grammar, I will re-rate this.

Great article! An easy informative read. If I ever want to make a kill cone, I will refer to this article for sure.
