As a diehard fan of @Perris, I don’t know how I missed this article until now!
Thank you for this update. The statistics provided show that chickens thrive on your food.
I felt that I was unable to physically to make these. After seeing the statistics I will find a way. I want the best for my chickens, and this is clearly the best.
Thank you for another great article!

Fantastic! I am bookmarking because I will be referring back to this article. So much information.
Thank you for an outstanding article!

This article should be included with every e collar that is sold!
From explaining how the timing must be right, to explaining the use of different intensities, this article has it all.

After time to think, I deleted part of my review. Training your dog leave it with a chicken is as good as it gets!
An exceptionally good article.
Thank you!

I think that the inclusion of what not to feed is helpful information!
I think this is a very good resource for anyone with baby chicks, or people thinking about getting baby chicks.
Thank you for a great, informative article!

Great information! Naming which breed lays what color egg, plus which are good feed to egg ratio is good to know. Thank you for an informative, useful article!

Another awesome article! I will be showing bantams for the first time this fall and winter. When I first saw that they had to bathed, I couldn’t imagine bathing a chicken.
It is explained, with pictures, in a way that makes sense to me. Also understanding the why of using vinegar, and the reasons for bathing three days before the show.
Excellent article, thank you!

I’m glad you wrote this! I want to start showing next year and I still have a lot to learn. This article gives me the overall picture of how a show works.
Thank you for an excellent article!

My sister is a retired OR nurse, and she couldn’t have written this any better!
The illustrations are first class and very helpful.
Seeing the difference between a wound that is deep enough to need muscles sutured, or just the skin sutured is invaluable.
Explaining how to close a wound starting in the middle is something I learned the hard way. Sister didn’t live near me at the time.
Thank you for a first class article!

Thank you. I have been wondering if I would like to try showing chickens. I am reading all I can find about it. Your article gives information I did not know about.
I appreciate the detailed information about how to train for removing and putting your chicken back in the conditioning pen. Then continuing the process to handling and examining the chicken.
This article has provided more information than two books I purchased!

Everything you need to know. I like the no nonsense approach to raising mealworms in this article.

First I read the article about embryo development, then I read this article. I would pay to go stay for a month or a year to learn more! The wealth of knowledge, the willingness to share this knowledge is amazing.
To put a safety hole in every egg is brilliant.
Removing the shell of the egg sack to see what is wrong is also brilliant. It allows you to see inside without risking harm to the chick. Covering the membrane with coconut oil to prevent shrink wrap also brilliant.
Yes, I’m using the word ‘brilliant’ a lot. That’s because this is a brilliant article.
I think the embryo development article & this one should be included with every incubator!

This is my third time trying to write this review.
I learned so much, I don’t know where to begin.
The pictures are incredible, and how they were edited to make it easier to see the development is amazing in itself.
Learning the correct terminology is something I appreciate.
Learning when different body parts are developing, where the waste goes, that the chic gets some air through the egg shell, just incredible!
Thank you for sharing your knowledge! I will be bookmarking this article & referring people to it.
I wish I could give it more stars!

Thank you for this article. I am wondering if I would enjoy showing chickens & this gives me information I need to know.

I agree with others that this article is superb!
I like the first hand experience the author has & is able to call upon.
I agree that any roo that is human aggressive should be dispatched. They can do too much damage & as the author points out there are always good roos needing homes.
Very informative!

I have a lot of questions after reading this.
Where do I get show quality chickens from?
Do hatcheries other than McMurray cull male chicks?
How do you know hatcheries cull male chicks?
If you are going to say that do you have proof? Granted, there is a lot I don’t know about a lot of things! But I would like more information.
Where else can I get chicks from?
I’m sorry, but I found this article to be vague with the exception of naming one hatchery.
I considered posting this anonymously. But I think if I am going to give one star & question statements in the article I should use my name.

I found this article helpful even though I don’t have quail.
The pictures of how to make, and do things properly are useful for any bird owner. Seeing where the bands go on the legs of the quail would be true for any bird, whether using bands, bandaids…

Oh My Goodness, talk about laughing out loud, my tummy hurts!
This article sure brought back a lot of memories. Her writing abilities are amazing, I could visualize her rooster having a ‘seizure’.
This informative article should be required reading for anyone interested in getting chickens. I had no idea how quickly my first chickens would decimate my Mom’s flower bed. I also thought a one foot decorative fence would keep the hens out of it. Had I read this article first I would have known better.
I wish I could give more than 5 stars ️️️️️

I will need to read this again and again. I am going to copy it to access it offline, is that legal?
This information packed article contains not only the ‘what to feed’ it explains the why, with the science behind it.
Learning how words & terms in the UK might have a different meaning in the USA helped me a lot.
There is so much I want to say about the importance of the information in this article, I am at a loss as to where to begin!
Step by step instructions for making feed including pictures. Again, I have to say, understanding why ingredients are used, what the nutritional value is - I think I found the words -
Required reading whether you make your own feed or not.

Wow, I have been very lucky. I have not dealt with any crop issues. I have two 8 year old hens, I will watch for any problems.
I thought I was somewhat knowledgeable, but I wasn’t even aware of impacted or sour crop.
Thank you for explaining everything in enough detail that even I could feel confident treating a hen. The pictures are amazing.

I thought having numerous layers was not in my future. Then ‘Ready’ my stray debeaked () hen came into my life. My two 8yo hens will not accept her, I have tried everything I knew & read here.
So what does a loving crazy old lady do? Get chicks, obviously . The chicks are being raised where Ready sees them and they all can eat from one spot with chicks protected.
Goodness, I’m sure taking the long way to get to your fabulous article!
I am going to put curtains on my nesting boxes, so simple, so easy, so awesome
