I live in a totally different climate. I also have a hedge on 2 sides of my property. I now have a research project for plants that grow here to enrich and expand my hedges to better support the chickens foraging and shelter options. I'm rather excited about this as it's something I've wanted to do but didn't know where to start. Now I have a direction to go in. Thank you!

Good basics including soil requirements. Should include cold/heat hardiness with temps in both Imperial and metric as people from around the world use the site. Also include water requirements.

Caution on feeding new things to chickens: fantastic!

Clear, concise, links to coop designs for different climates.

Well laid out, concise. Clear what to do, how to do it and WHY do it. Much appreciated!

Well thought out, excellent reasoning/critical thinking. How chicken digestive system works vs what happens with fermentation. No "You have to do it this way", but rather "I tried this this and this and this is why I'm doing this." "You decide for yourself". Thank You for taking the time to write it all out!

Well written, covers info so a layman can get it. Very helpful!
