Very convenient to read article, covering all the basics. Could be improved by adding more pictures and more details on the treatment. For example how do you keep the wound clean? How often do you have to change the bandage? …

Nice coop! The article however lacks a lot of details: How was the roof added, what materials were used etc. Please add more details so that this article will become an outstanding up-cycling example.

When we started the build I had meant to take photos along the way but you know once we got busy that didn’t happen. And we did a lot of quick fixes and coverups of mistakes Ha. The crate is narrow so we didn’t feel like we had to put a lot of trusses. I think there are 4 along the 9’ of roof. 2x4’s. Then we put plywood and rolled roofing.

This article needs some TLC to earn more stars: More details how you actually turned the playhouse into a tractor. A list of material used (upcycled) would help too.

Nicely written and many supportive pictures. Can be improved with a wiring diagram, a list of used materials and some construction pictures.

Lot's of information provided, but a bit confusing… More pictures of the setup would definitely earn the fifth star.

Well written article which provides a lot of information about frost-hardiness of chickens. With some brief hints about how to heat the coop and the risks of heating a coop this article can receive five stars.
Lot's and lot's of pictures give a relatively good idea of what was done. That is a serious built and anybody who needs instructions how to put a nut on a screw should first try to build something less complex. Love the parts-list! A wiring diagram will add the fifth star.
P.S. I have a defect mini-fridge on my patio… ;)

You have some really lucky ducks!
I understand it is difficult to describe all the steps of such a humongous undertaking in great detail, but a little more detail i would like to see. I have not yet fully understood which are the pictures of the old and which are the new aviary… for example.

Cats and Chickens are some kind of natural enemies and there is no guarantee that "kitty" won't develop an appetite for some "chicken nuggets" in the future… Super cute picture, however. Please keep this article updated and thank's for sharing.

We keep a close eye on him. He is fed well. Very friendly cat. We’ve tried chasing him out, but he keeps going in the chicken pen and coop. He usually doesn’t sleep in the nest box until all the girls have laid their eggs. He usually sleeps in the box with the eggs. So far he hasn’t broke any.
Very educating video, nicely planned and fun to watch.

Very well written article about a life-saving procedure no chicken owner wants to perform with a rooster. Many before and after pictures help to understand why the procedure must be done to save some rooster's life. Reading about the procedure made me shiver, especially because no numbing or anesthetics seem to be available for chickens, boy am i happy that my ducks don't have combs and/or wattles!
