Very informative and properly referenced for additional reading. The interjection of personal experience effectively highlighted the main idea of the subheadings. Well done!

beautiful and unique coop. The cupola makes the design complete. I’m curious how the moss held up?

The moss roof has been evolving, some panels get more sun than others. The front panel over the doors has gotten the most sun so I have been tossing up sedums periodically to help fill in the bare areas. I will see if I can upload a new picture!

Thanks for taking the time to review this article. If you want to try growing fodder at home, this is about the easiest system I know and it will not cost much to try out if you use scrap lumber like I did.
Sounds delicious. I will make this for my next work pot luck. There is one who has serious gluten allergy. I have learned from her (the hard way) that some packaged grated cheeses may be coated with a wheat based cellulose, but it should be noted on the label. Most are gluten free however. Just to be certain though I will grate my own for pot lucks and guests.
Thx for sharing your recipe!!

Overall some good tips. One major error to clarify regarding feed: Medicated chick starter should NOT be given to chicks that are vaccinated for coccidiosis. Feed non-medicated chick starter.

Thanks! The girls really love the loft. There’s a food bowl up there, so my shy girls can eat in peace, it has an awesome view out into the woods, gets a breeze and shade in the Summer, and it’s high up, which they love.

Very good documentation with pictures. The description is good. It would be 5 stars if measurements were added or a sketch with measurements so as to be replicated if someone desired. Overall very nice coop and run.
