I enjoyed reading of the author's experience with starting their own breeding program. I also appreciate that they came to the conclusion that it cost more money than they made in selling the offspring - potentially preventing others who enter the breeding process thinking it can be profitable, rather than just enjoyable.
Thanks for taking to time to share your experience!

I have the premier1 heated poultry waterer. I was worried about how they'd adapt to the nipple waterer. They learned to use the nipples almost immediately!

Thank you for pulling this together. I was fortunate enough to get Storey's guide recommended to me before starting with chickens last spring. This article would have been great to have then - and I'm planning on reading a few more of this list now.

Really great article!
