Thank you. I am only sharing what I have learned through the years. I can't say I am a very experienced chicken person but I know some. I have learned a lot myself just by writing.

You're welcome. Good writing requires research which always adds to our store of knowledge.

Sort of off the topic.... Saw you are in Kalispell, Montana. We were just in Kalispell, Montana in August! Our car's front wheel bearing went out at almost the top of West Glacier. Amazing place. We were then towed to Kalispell, Montana and slept in the car at a junk yard.

@ChickenLover200 I agree with Michael O'Shay's compliment on your articles. So far I've read two of them:

Egg eating, what it is, how to prevent it, and partial solutions
https://www.backyardchickens.com/a/egg-eating-what-it-is-how-to-prevent-it-and-partial-solutions

**How to photograph your chickens and other poultry**
https://www.backyardchickens.com/a/how-to-photograph-your-chickens-and-other-poultry

Both were well done and helpful (well, the photography still requires a lot of practice on my part, lol). Thank you for sharing and adding to all the wonderful information here!

This entire area is pretty amazing. It's one of the reasons we moved here. You probably slept at the big wrecking yard on the south end of the city. It's not far from our place (which is a little ways further south in the foothills).

It was American something or other towing/wrecking company. I forget what the owner's name is... seems like FOREVER ago.

It was not the one near our farm then. The one near us is called Wisher's Auto Recycling.
