This is perfect - a short and sweet checklist for maintaining a compost pile. There are lots of articles on starting a system from scratch, and the better ones have a longer version of this one buried in them, but this one addresses the day-to day maintenance without lots of overloading details. Very nicely done ... Thanks!

That's beautiful! The crate even came with ready-made architectural details! How and where would one go about locating and purchasing such a crate, or do you have to buy a piece of huge machinery to come by one?

Here in Wichita, businesses give them away regularly! I find them on Craigslist

What an awesome set-up! And what a great way to adapt a pre-fab coop! The text is clear and easy to follow. The pictures are great. The run is perfect for both people and birds - lots of space and lots of interest. And the fire-pit dust bath is pure genius!

This is a great idea - and a whole lot more economical than buying custom outdoor shade screens!

We do this with all sorts of goodies ... cabbage, cucumbers. We've even hung corn on the cob by pulling back the husk and tying the string around the top. We've also used a wire hanging basket to hang cauliflower. They loved it!

This looks like a great set-up for double flocks. It even has ample space in the middle for storage ... or to set-up for Chicken (and Duck) TV!

This was a short, fun, easy read. The pictures are very clear ... even the one in my mind of DW's reaction! I really like the perch/roost configuration fpr the chickens, too. I'll be adapting that one, myself!
Nicely done!

This is excellent information about the uses and nature of many antibiotics as used in DOGS. There is a good warning about using them (or not) on poultry, but it should also carry a warning that antibiotics must be used VERY carefully. If the user doesn't know what they're doing with them, a vet should be consulted about dosage and side effects.

Wow! This is a wonderful set-up! It's designed to handle both extremes of weather - desert heat to winter nights. With a few minor adaptations, it could be made to handle snow, as well. The entire set-up is well-documented, as well, with great pictures of the original build and the year-in adjustments. VERY nicely done, both the coop/run and the article. Thank you!
