I love the idea, and the last items on your materials list. I think a couple of more pictures and some background of how you like it, how long does it last, pros, cons, etc. would be helpful. Great job!

I ship hatching eggs and hatch a lot myself. You cover all of the bases and this is helpful for someone hatching shipped eggs their first couple of times.

As others mentioned, try get a couple pictures of what you're looking for when candling upon unpacking those eggs. Good job!

Thank you for this thorough article on herbs! I use a few myself but we have a member asking about them so I searched and found your article to share with them. I'll come back and read more too! Thank you! ❤️

Coming from someone who just had hubby build her one, I do like this one, but it needs a little more info on building it as not everyone can take a parts list and just put it together. Also, like NFC said, cleaning it's going to be rough. Could you make the back of it be on hinges?

I've looked at a ton of DYI cabinet incubators and this is by far the best illustrated and explained one ever. I did note a couple of links didn't work anymore but a Google search found, for instance, the flashlight for the egg candler. I'm in the market for one!

Excellent idea and good job explaining how to do it ourselves. Could we not sit this up higher though, like on a brick or two so they get it closer to eye level for them? I don't see why not except that hefty bottle of water might be a struggle even more. Also, I'd clean up the typos and grammar but otherwise, nice job!!!
Excellent explanation for those new or even experienced with ducks. I don't have any now, but sometimes here I see folks asking questions and now not only do I know a little bit more than I did, I can just give them a link to this and it will help them. Thank you!
Good info. You could improve this so much by making a link for each breed to a website or thread here that explains the breed, and also having a picture of one of each breed as well.

I love the photos and the idea, but it's not helping me build one. Could you do step by step and tell us everything we have to buy and where to get it for those of us who would like to try make one?

Good to show a different nipple waterer as nipple waterers are all we use from baby chick to adults but I'd never seen this one.

Excellent. We often advise people to give their chicken a whole Vit. E pill, Calcium, etc., and to just pop it in their mouth. Easier said than done for some folks and your video shows them perfectly! Thank you!

This would maybe be better placed in Reviews as it is more of a review instead of an article. You could explain it in a few paragraphs which would help.

Mini-coops are handy for grow-out pens! Hubby just built one I call a "hutch." If he saw yours before he built it or builds another, this isn't helping much as it's not explaining it nor how you built it.

This looks like it's from a kit or a plan? Could you explain where you got it as it doesn't seem too shabby really, much better than a prebuilt. This article needs work though! Thanks!

What a nice coop! I bet they love it and it looks like it's nice for you too! It's also very beautiful looking as well, and not an eye-sore like so many are. It is a consideration for some of us!

If you ever update it, could you put some explanations under some of the pictures, like there's one of where you were prepping the floor to lay tile for example.

My neighbor across the road said she saw her dog nearly catch a weasel. I'm like weasel? So I came to learn what she's got over there before we get 'em! Thank you for the informative article!! Darn, why do they have to be so cute!
