Excellent! This is one of the best "how to build a coop" articles I've seen!

Neat idea. A material list would be nice as well as an update as you identified some issues, but didn't say how you handled them.

Such a cute coop with illustrations and explanations the whole way through.

There are several grammatical errors and typos that could be cleaned up, but all in all, great job!

This is more a story about your chickens, which was a good read, but probably doesn't belong in the coop section as it has one sentence about the coop.

Using a doghouse for the "coop" is a great idea, and we've done it for a breeding pen.

This article could be better if you'd explain how you did this. The pictures are okay but we'd need more information to build this for ourselves.

Cool coop! A little more explanation of how you made this into a coop would be helpful. Also, is there some perks to all the doors? It's cute, but just wondering if they were used for cost purposes or for a reason. Pretty neat though!

You need to incorporate what you put into your blog here. This is an incomplete article otherwise as people don't want to have to click back and forth between websites to see what you did. It's a nice coop but from what's here, there's nothing explaining anything to someone who may want to build it.

This needs work to explain what's going on. It's just a bunch of pictures and no finished coop. It's a good start though!

What a coop! Wonderful job documenting it step by step. Your pictures are awesome. I too would love to have seen the finished project once you got the runs done and chickens in. It's just not complete yet but wow, it's awesome!

I love your coop, chicks, and photos. I especially love your slide doors pulley system. I will show that to my husband to change ours to that. Much less work!

You need to fix your text though as it's all a link to your pictures which are posted fine. It's just a distraction is all.

We feed ours buckets of pits/skins as we go cherry picking yearly up in Door County, WI. They love them and it's fun to see the red faces. They know the drill and leave all the pits.

Very informational and actually inspirational as well. We grow kale exclusively for the chickens as I think that's the best green we can grow here but we'll try cauliflower.

This could be so much better if you would have someone run a grammar/spell check for you.

Very informative, but I agree; this article needs photos.

Nice but would be better if we could see inside of it and if you told us a little bit about how to build it.
Comprehensive article about a totally gross topic. This is a great resource to help others with flystrike issues.

This is great. The best thing I liked are the links to the other forums to find more of each particular item and the further reading should the reader want to research further.

There's a typo in this line though: "There is no need for a run at all if your birds can't free-range, but it's a good idea if they can't."

This is great for someone new to quail. In fact, if I ever get into it, I'll be coming back.

Sometime when you get time though, if you could replace the blurrier pictures it would just look much nicer.

I'd love to have less blurry pictures and did try a tripod and remote, the results were beautiful but not realistic, what the camera saw was not what the human eye perceives, and I don't want to freak out neophyte candlers who aren't seeing anything close to what the picture shows, sort of like the Northen Lights, I see smoky clouds but the camera gets all these fabulous colors, grrrr. I'll keep working on adjusting the balance but realistic pictures in this project is far more important than photo quality.
