Very informative article on handling older chickens for meat. It makes sense that the longer resting period would help. Very good pointers and well-written.

Quite a fascinating idea. It definitely looks like an easy way to transport those things. I might want to try this to transport other things as well.

Easy list of materials needed and clear details on how to design this. It also included some helpful pointers like weight limits.

How many will fit?

Needs more pictures of the process and details on what was done. Article did include some measurements and what the author would have done differently. Cute coops.

Great pictures of the process. Adding a write-up of what's being done in each of the pictures would benefit this article.

Beautiful coop. Would love to see how to build it along with more details of the process.
Detailed article on the basics of getting started with chicks. Article had lots of good pictures and a few helpful links for further research.

Very informative article. I used to keep guinea fowl with all the birds listed here, as well as geese. One of the things I noticed with mine is they helped keep the peace between my diverse flocks and would alert us if somebody wasn't getting along.

Interesting idea, but the article needs more details like space between the cardboard walls for average chicks of this variety (quail, standard chicken chick, bantam, etc.) and how to build\design it. Even including a success story of a particular chick healing through this method with pictures of its progress would help this article. Also, details on how exactly it works and how it actually helps the chicks heal would be helpful.
Again, interesting idea. I'd love to know more on it.

Can I show you the video? That is a success story. How do I send it?

Very detailed and informational article. The steps on quarantine were especially helpful.

I would like to add: If testing for Marek's, there should be more than one test on more than one chicken as false negatives can happen. On the exposed pullet, a second test done by another vet or company should be done to ensure that she didn't have a false negative.

Thank you for reviewing and for advising on re-testing Sarah. Not sure how I missed that detail in all the reading I did.
Helpful article with great pointers on keeping your chickens entertained!
