A well written article. I am one of those people who have concerns about feeding eggshells to my flock but after reading your methods, I'd feel safer doing it now. The extra links for further reading are helpful too.

I use the Deep Litter Method every winter and this article did an excellent job explaining how it all works. I even learned some new things about it that I want to try this winter. The list of pros and cons was also very helpful in explaining things and added a great touch to this article.

A very nice coop article that had a nice walkthrough of the coop's building process. Article included the coop's measurements and mentioned the materials used throughout the build. I love the plastic roofing all the way across the roof and the moveable divider.

An interesting read with pictures. I would love to know more about why you used the materials you did and what the inside temperature was. I do the deep litter method and am currently trying to know more about it.

Great article that had a nice list of alternatives to debeaking. The pros and cons in that list was very helpful. This article also covered a lot of debeaking facts which were interesting to me, especially because I've owned multiple debeaked hens (they came to me debeaked) over the years.
