Excellent article! For years I've checked the pelvic points on my hen to determine if they were laying or how close to laying they were. There was some other methods of telling in this article that I found quite interesting. This article was an overall good read and informational. :thumbsup

Very interesting article with great information on using chickens for compost. Article included helpful details on things to keep in mind on both using chicken tractors and portable fencing. Article had some excellent information on how to compost chicken poop along with saying the dangers if it's not done properly. Come near the end of the article, there was a nice list of methods other than chicken poop for manure, and information on how to do/use them too.

Article did have some simple grammar/spelling flaws. I would have liked to have seen links to a few things mentioned.

Very good article that was informational. I learned a lot and if possible, I would like to try this out on one of my own birds some day, should they get water belly.

I would like to see more information on the lung tincture. The article included all the ingredients, but didn't say how much of each ingredient was needed to make it. It also did not include how the tincture was made into liquid. (If it was essential oils, that would be helpful to know.)

I made the tincture with a teaspoon of everything but Tumeric. I used 2. Covered it with Everclear and added 2 teaspoons of water mixed and microwaved until it boiled. Allowed it to cool and placed in the freezer for 3 hours (it's called cold processing). It partially froze. I thawed it, and drained it into a dropper bottle. There was a residue settlement.

Dosage was shaking to suspend the settled particles and administering one half dropper twice daily.

This is an "eggsellent" review! I know the trouble of taking chicken photos and have been doing it for years. I so agree with taking lots of photos! I have token up to 800 pictures in one day, so I have experience in that. Thanks for posting this review.
