A great article with sage advice that works!
Glad BeeKissed has put her knowledge in an article that teaches us how to modify a rooster's behavior around people. Without that proper training a child or even owner can fall victim to a rooster flogging.

An efficient nest box for collecting clean eggs and for housing several hen's. The to-scale drawings for parts are included in attached pdf files. Photos are clear and commentary is helpful. The author is creative and modest.

A great article written by someone with vast experience and techniques for solving a problem many of us face. Suggestions for immediate action and permanent fixes are very helpful. Materials are covered for efficiency, cost and endurance.
An article worth tagging for reviewing before new structures are sited and/or built.

The author compiles notable advice from several BYC members in to one location.
The health of your original flock is preserved by quarantine guidelines. Integrating new birds with your flock is a good section with loads of examples.

For a non-carpenter, this is a nicely executed plan. Explanations and pictures for each stage show why and how details. A well written article which includes dimensions. Even includes things that could be improved.

Great recycle tips and instructions for modifying a purchased shed for his ducks. Good suggestions for use of materials to improve the facility and make it nice looking too.
I enjoyed his explanation for food storage, water barrier and electric usage.
Predator proofing was good too.
Nice project.
