Nicely illustrated with great laymen (haha) style write up. Great for a newbie chicken chick like me.
I would like to know from where the skeletal illustration can be found. I am curious to know the other structure labels.

Many questions need answers here.
How many times has the cure been replicated with the same outcome by the OP? From what source did the drug combination recommendation originate? Agree with others that references are needed.
“but they (some people, articles) don't share this information” Who are these people and where can I read the articles for more information?
Consider explaining what fowl pox is briefly, what is the average latent period (since you mention it), and what is the usually accepted standard of care other than cull. Thx

Nicely done. The author makes an important point in averaging eggs per week according to breed. Production breeds, as mentioned, may produce more than average in spring.
To the space section consider adding that one nest box to three- four hens is a good rule of thumb.
well done.

Good information on marigold benefits in chickens. The article certainly sparks interest toward further investigation into the way in which marigold impact chicken and egg health. I am interested in learning more about the way marigold reduces cholesterol in the egg from a consumer perspective. Also, what potential concerns, if any, would having a lower egg cholesterol content have on a fertilized egg and the chicks development. Reference needed.
