Looks nice! Some more info about the easy framing would be good, and perhaps some pictures of the building process.

A nice, well-built coop! I don't know if I could deal with one right against my house, haha, but I would love the chicken tv!

I love the repurposing of old structures to make chicken coops :) I would suggest going with something other than chicken wire, just because it does not keep predators out - they can go right through it.

I'm always a fan of recycling material for other uses, and I find it really cool to see what people come up with!
Good article! Some pictures of the different kinds of heat sources would be good.

A great article about feeding baby chicks. I would add that the medication used in most medicated feeds to prevent coccidiosis, amprolium, isn't actually an antibiotic - it's a thiamine blocker.

I usually let my chickens clean up the turkey carcass after Thanksgiving; they go crazy for it.

Good info about the risks of overheating baby chicks. A lot of people become so worried about them getting cold, they go too far the other way.

A good article about how to get started with fodder for chickens. Geese appreciate fodder too, especially in winter!

A good article! The only thing I would potentially add is some info about what breeds are better for meat, and can't be kept as pets as well - those being the broad-breasted breeds, which get very large so are good for meat, but have health problems as a result, so they don't make as good pets.
