The info is good and the pics are really nice. Please, please, PLEASE keep adding more?!?!

Lots of good info here on converting a shed to a multi-fowl operation. Please keep us posted as the project progresses. Very nicely done!

This is clear and pretty easy to follow. Will you be doing separate articles for each med, or editing this one to include others? Either way, your notes on how to weigh your chickens are must-read for anyone dosing their birds. You might consider adding a separate article on just that topic ... short, sweet and dare I say "funny?" Squirrely types, I LOVE it!

This is a good article for new exhibitors. A few pics would make it more appealing and easier to read through - maybe on bathing, a general view of a show, or even a pic of a show cage & waterers - anything that would catch new exhibitor's eye and help with planning.
Overall, a very nice job!

OhMaGosh ... and it could go on forever! What about colors? or emotions? or? ... or? ... This is FUN!

That's a great idea, to make your run so sturdy that you can put whatever you want inside. It sure will help with the boredom issues - both yours and your hens! Very nicely done!

What a great article! I learned a great deal reading this. I definitely mark it as a "Must Read!"

This is beautifully done! Can you please add some details on how you added the straw insulation? You mentioned twine, but I don't see it - and how did you tack it into place so it isn't a choking or tangling hazard? I LOVE this!

While there aren't many build pics, this is still a good article. As the author notes, there are lots of how-to videos on building hoop coops, so there wasn't a huge need for another. The tips, however, are worth the read, especially if you're an over-six foot chicken keeper. Thanks!

Very nice set-up! Lots of space for both biddies and bunnies ... and even a little bit of expansion room! I really like the shed-style set-ups that allow room for people, too. If I had a set-up like this, You'd never get me out of there until first-frost!

Great Job! What a good idea to put it right off the deck so your youngster can help out. And I like the idea of using the under-deck space as a run, too. At our house, that space is usually reserved for hiding "junk" - like the lawnmower no one ever wants to put away properly!

What a wonderful chronicle of an even greater effort! Chickens can be so resilient ... as long as we are aware and persistent. Wonderful job ... in both documentation and super chicken care!

This is a great set of pictures showing age progression of both parents and the resulting chick. Are the chick's progress coming, too? Please?

This is a fascinating article. It puts complicated genetics into easy (well, easiER!) to understand language. Thanks so much for the education!

There's a LOT of information, here. It's a bit tough to get through, but important enough to read all the way to the end. Thanks!

This is a really sweet little coop - "sweet" as in "really nice" not just "cute." I would love to see some text to go along with the great pictures. And maybe some notes on how you leak-proofed the lift-flaps on such a steeply pitched roof. I really like this idea - and may adapt it as a lean-to on my own set-up. Details? Please?

You've got a good start, here. We'll be waiting to see updates and more pics as things progress. I wish I could start over again with a shed. Our playhouse is fun and functional, but not nearly big enough!

Update Edit - Wow! This is beautiful! I love the re-purposed cabinets as a brooder & nest boxes. We are redoing a few cabinets in the kitchen ... and guess where the old ones are going, now? Thanks for the inspiration ... and keep it coming, please!
:pop

What pretty little girls! I love Chicken TV!

If you can document the rest of this build as well as you started out, we're all in for a treat! Please keep us posted.

I need to try this! Our chickens are very small bantams, so feeders can be problematic. Those designed for chicks are too small - both in access and capacity. Most designed for standard fowl are either too large (and my biddies can climb in the openings) or the access is too long for their little necks to use efficiently. This design allows for adjustments ... so it just might work! Thanks for the clear instructions and pictures!
