Pretty coop and great way to repurpose a rabbit hutch! Even though the author wasn't able to get down all the steps (which they disclaimed), they still were able to show enough of what they did for it to be followed by others.

Very nice coop article and well detailed. Good pictures on the process and clear write-up as the coop progressed.

On the coop itself, I'd be a little concerned on how much of it is opened up on the front. I feel like if it was raining and the wind was blowing (like we have here in Maine) the whole inside of the coop would get wet.

Good point, I should have mentioned that we live in California so we don't have to worry much about rain. I do plan to install covers on the rare occasion it becomes necessary.

Not a lot of information on what this is or how exactly to treat it. It did say it was from maggots and what they did to stop the flies, but the article would be more helpful if it focused on what exactly Botulism is, the symptoms, and treatment plan.

Nice article on what a rooster should be with some helpful points. The grammar issues made it a little difficult to read, but otherwise nice article.

Beautiful coop! I would love to see pictures of the process and more details on how it was built. One downside of this coop, is it's not always safe to have a coop next to a house like that. Should either the coop or your house catch on fire, you'd risk losing both.

Very helpful article! I'll have to try this if I ever have this problem again. Article was simple and easy to read with clear instructions and good pictures showing how each step is done and how it should look like. A recommended read for anyone dealing with this problem. :thumbsup

Thank you so much! When I was about to brace this chick last night I decided to make an article about it… I wish I had done a cleaner job making the brace, lol, but hopefully people get the idea. This chick is already walking around, eating and drinking with the brace on today. The day before the chick couldn’t move around at all. So it can be a lifesaver for some chicks!

Cool repurposing of an old barn\shed. It looks like it was coming out nice. Would love to have seen how it came out and more details on the process!

My wife calls it the "Tash-ma-coop".

Helpful and detailed article on the Fisher Cat. Great list of points and the last point was especially helpful as far as preventing attacks from these creatures.

Very interesting article! I knew chickens could see more than we did, but I didn't know that they were near-sighted in one eye and far-sighted in the other. This article helped further my knowledge on chicken eyesight, thank you for writing it.

Well-written article and very helpful for those wondering what to do when they have a suppressed immune system. Each point stayed on topic and was simple to both read and understand, as well as follow. Informational too.
