This is a great idea with a lot of great pictures, explanations, and even a shopping list. It is something I know I could even try if the need arises. It would be handy to have if I ran out of room even for a hatching incubator! Nice job!

An interesting start to this little coop, but where's the finished project?

You did such a nice job explaining your step-by-step project! Very detailed to even where you're finding your materials. Very helpful! Excellent pictures.

It was a fun read and great ideas you have! The pictures need to be larger though, and there are a lot of typos. Otherwise, nice job!

It's pretty nice and you explain it well, but it's a hard read. The print is too small and it's centered so awkward. I think if you could make some headings it would help make it more readable too. So nice coop, just some presentation issues.

Perfect. I liked the suggestion of poultry vitamins as some don't think about that as helping healing. We've used Vet Wrap but exactly the same principle as the bandaid. Great photo of it to demonstrate it!

I just shared this with someone who needed help.

This is a good basic explanation of Coryza.

The YouTube video is a robotic voice and has bad tone inflections in the wrong places making it distracting.

I would try to add just a bit more information by going a little further into depth on the detection and treatment.

This was cool! I'm going to remember to share this article next time I see someone on here asking what sex their ducks are. Awesome pictures!

Pretty ingenious idea once again! You might just have to go into business! I too though would have liked another photo or two to show the underside of your waterer and the chickens drinking from it.

Did it end up working well for you through a winter?

It's very thorough, interesting, and educational. I learned a lot about what's going on inside of an egg.

Just two suggestions: When the topic changes from TOULOUSE GEESE to MACAWS, I would put a new heading there or headings/subheadings above each particular breed of egg you are showing.

I would also suggest putting Fahrenheit temp in parenthesis by all the Celcius temps noted for those of us in the U.S.

Ingenious idea for folks with smaller coops. You made it look easy too. Great article!

2 and 6 are my main reasons! Great article and a little bit enlightening!

I like it. I showed hubby for our two brooders this might be nice as they always get mash but I've been using a 4 oz ceramic bowl to put dry in so there's less scratching, yet they still do. He's going to pick up a couple and we'll try it out. Thanks!

That was pretty cool! Someday I'm going to hatch these again. I did for my neighbor but I didn't know they could even be candled.

This was pretty good. I liked that you linked the DYI Incubators in there and your other links. I didn't like the Amazon link only for the fact that some people don't know one incubator from another and pick out the cheapest one, then we end up trying to help them modify it. I've done that three times thus far myself.

Pretty good. I would like to see more citations for the sources of information. There's a lot more that could be added but it's a great introduction to the breed. I also don't know that I'd say that about the size of the eggs but maybe you have larger silkies.

It was good you recorded this for other folks to learn from too. I would remove the blurry photos and for those that never seen the inside of a chicken before, it would be nice if you could separate the photos with a line explaining what we're looking at. Knowing that your precious hen died from an internal laying issue pretty much means the rest of her innards would be pretty normal here. That way someone can compare notes with yours.

Great article, especially for someone on the fence about what getting chicks or chickens entails! It was nice of you to link popular educational links at the end too!
