Excellent article. I would have loved to see how it turned out. It was coming out great and the details were very helpful along with the included pricing of everything.
Interesting perspective, but the article appears to be more of a matter of opinion, not facts. I've kept chickens for nearly fourteen years and geese for nine of those years and know that geese, though somewhat easy to care for, do have their own set of challenges.
This is my personal opinion, yes.
I know that every experience is different and we all have our own perspective.
My main point is that geese are more hardy then chickens and therefore more forgiving to beginners.
I would like to know more about your experience. What kind of geese do you have?
It also depends on what role geese play on our farm. For me they are pets and I spend lots of time with them. I think of them as family.
For people who think of them as a business, profit, or just a way for meat or goslings then you think of them differently and therefore you would have a different perspective then me. It all depends.
Very nice coop article! Lots of pictures of the process and a very nice write-up. I love the using the table as a skylight idea. Very pretty coop and run as well.
Simple article for beginners with interesting insights. Adding a picture (or two ) and fixing some of the grammar mistakes would better the reader's experience.
On the rooster piece, it should be noted that not all rooster breeds should be kept together, such as the Old English Game breeds, as they will fight to the death, no matter the circumstance (I'm saying this from my own experience raising them). Also, roosters do better together in bachelor flocks than with hens (unless you have more than enough), as they will fight for their amount (this is also from my own existence with different breeds).
Besides that, great article. The key points were enjoyable to read and helpful to anyone who is new to chickens.
