Nice coop/run. We'd need some instructions of how you built this and a blueprint of sorts to show dimensions. It's also lacking pictures of the inside. Seems like the chickens like it!

This looks great but I'd need more build pictures and instructions of how you did it.

It's a cute coop, but not enough or good pictures of the inside and there's no instructions of how you built it.

This is an adorable coop. It reminds me of KFC and not sure if that was intentional.

There's no build details that would help us build this.

That's a great coop and run! We just need some details how we would built it.

It looks like you were doing a great job converting a doghouse into a coop. There's no instructions here nor is it finished. We've done that too but it's more for a growout pen or breeding pen. I like the orange though!

This is just a picture of the outside of a tractor coop. A coop article needs more pictures and instructions of how you built it. A floor plan and materials lists are great too.

It looks nice though!

I like how you remodeled a tree house into a coop. There's not too many people who have tree houses to remodel so I guess a lot of detail isn't so necessary but still would help inspire someone wanting something like this!

It's small but cute. It would work for some but there's no instructions how to build it. Also, as another person mentioned, it should have 1/2" hardware cloth, not chicken wire.

I just was helping someone whose neighbor is feeding their chickens bread and they suspect sometimes it's moldy as they have a sick chicken. I searched for information and found this article. Very helpful, thank you!

This needs a lot of explaining.

I would turn those 2x4 roosts the other way especially if that's where your silkies roost.

We didn't get to see the inside or much information about how it was built. The run area is way too small too but sounded like there was another one coming?

Some explanation of how you built this along with some measurements or a blueprint would be helpful.

Great documentation of the build with pictures. Would be helpful to have explanations along the way with what was being done. Nice job though! I like it!

This is one of the better brooders I've seen. I just wish there were some instructions on how to build it, or, since everyone may want to use wood scraps, at least a blueprint. It looks great though!

Excellent materials list. This article needs paragraphs, though, and pictures with explanations/details for each step to build this. It looks great though!

This looks so thought out yet complicated for a normal person. I think if you broke it down more what you did, and add a wiring diagram, that would help a lot. I'm wondering though why not just a gravity feed so they'll always have feed available?
Love the ideas and the links too! Very inspiring as well! The treat with unflavored gelatin was a surprise I never thought of, but going to do that for sure, among a couple of others. Thank you!

I am very familiar with coccidiosis and found your article about it very easy to read with great pictures and has all the reader needs to know about it.

The only thing I would add is after the dosage of Corid is through, the chicks/chickens should be given vitamins whether by water or additives to feed, specifically one that has Thiamine (B1 in it) to rapidly replenish the loss the Corid caused.

Excellent article! Nice job!
