I realize this is an older article but I was looking for something that explained breeds of chickens for a new member. This was great! Thank you!

Excellent illustrations and explanations! I don't have ducks, just chickens, so was looking up how to help another member who thinks their duck has bumblefoot. I don't think it does but I'll still share this with them in case it would lead to it. Thank you!

This is awesome. We have a coop, and an aviary, but are looking at building something else for an outdoor breeding pen for our silkies to be used for every month but winter. Something like this would work great and also, if I get my wish to raise quail someday!

As for the anonymous person who commented about your chicken wire not being preditor-proof, I would have too but I read your explanation which makes perfect sense. I just wish people would read before judging. Nice job!

Thank you!
Yes so far it has been a year and I haven’t had any issues yet with the chicken wire. Even with rats/ mouse which is probably the only threat in center cities. They have plenty of things to eat in the garbages in the street I think 😂

I'm sorry but I was hoping to find more help here in the development of chicks in an egg. This article is a decade old, but came up when we search "candle eggs" and it's not hugely helpful to someone who is asking what do they look like each week. I have to try find some other article for them. If you're still here, you could really spruce this up!

Thank you for this article and all the great pictures you have to help explain it. We have a member with a newly hatched chick presenting with curled toes so wanted to show them how to splint it. I shared this with the member, and grateful I found this!

This is a great article. I'm an old chicken tenderer, and have helped answer questions through the years, but now I'll just share your article when someone asks.

The only thing I personally don't agree with is to just worm my chickens to prevent something they don't have or get. I've never had to worm mine, and if the time comes, I will then. ☺️

Love this! We have a huge garden, wildflower field, and a woods behind us. There are a lot of things around here they shouldn't have, such as Lily of the Valley which grows wild on the hill, and whoever said silkies were smart, but they don't eat it. This is a great reference though for some things I SHOULD grow. Thank you!

This is awesome and filled with so many good ideas to try, and if not, you have alternatives there which is great as things often depend on the breed or types of chickens we're all dealing with. I love the Plan B of raising the temp pen with bricks. Ingenious!

I was looking for a resource for someone with a duck that has bumblefoot and came upon this and skimmed it. I love how thorough it is. The font is very small to me but perhaps you did that intentionally. Good article though!

I just came across a new member with a cross beak asking for help, so found your article and skimmed it. I am impressed as it covers everything I've heard over the years but never had to use because I've not had the issue. I just love that I can share this with that new member or, from now on, anyone else who needs guidance! A+++++

I was searching for DIY incubators and read yours. It's awesome; however, pictures tell 1000 words, is the saying. Also, any updates would be great to see.
