Announcement BYC Learning Center Rating Project

Oh, OK.
I was under the impression, as several members had posted, that there was now an approval process....maybe I mis-read, or they misunderstood.

Well, one other option: Things are constantly changing as we try to find the best procedures that have the perfect balance between what is best for the community, visitors, team, etc. etc. etc.

A bunch more to review!

Thanks, Shepherd (@BYC Project Manager), your recent batch of "can chickens eat" articles are so good!

Lots of articles have fewer than 3 reviews. Let's work together as a team to make sure ALL the articles have at least 3 reviews!

(NOTE: the list above is CUSTOMIZED to your account, so you'll only see articles that you have NOT yet reviewed. If every member took a little time to review just 5 articles, it would make a HUGE difference!)

If any of you see one that should be a thread, please report it.

Thanks!

Save A Chick article.

I clicked the picture below as instructed to download the brochure and got the message "Ooops we ran into some problems."
Not a lot of point in reviewing the article.

Regarding the "Can Chickens Eat" series.
Should these be in the review process?
By the time one has worked through every food type on the planet only to discover that 99% of them can be eaten by chickens might it not take up a lot less space and time just to mention what they can't eat?

I just opened the article in an incognito window, clicked both images, and the PDF's were downloaded. Anybody else having problems downloading?

If so, which browser are you on, and can you try from an incognito window?

I totally get what you're saying, but we intentionally put those in because people often search BYC and Google for terms like "can chickens eat xyz", and we want to provide them with a quick, specific, and definitive answer.
