The numbers in the article will give someone a good idea of what it will cost to get started in chickens. A reader should plan for higher end in cost in most cases, to be on the safe side.

Article is clear and has good visuals to help the reader understand the explanation. A hexagon shaped run with sections make sense and would work great for some owners with the space.

This article lists things you may not have thought about as a hazard to your birds. After we built our run, we made sure to go through and pick up any stray items. Our chickens still found little pieces of things. I ended up chasing them around taking things we couldn’t believe we missed away from them!

This article would be super helpful if it had more visuals. Saddle feathers, pointed feathers as opposed to the rounder feathers, etc.

I have seen misters and concerned them with this hot summer, but a mister controlled by the outside temp is genius.
I like the idea of a greenhouse and coop in one.
