Ended Official BYC Article Writing Contest #10

If anyone has any other topic ideas for me let me know

The learning center doesn't have any articles on "Hardware Disease". Pretty gruesome topic, but it's important for people to know that it exists. I can point you to some threads with pictures and have a few pictures of my own if it's something you want to tackle.

Yes I would love some more article topic ideas! I’ve gotten the article writing bug.
Great article too!

Another much needed article is "Penile Prolapse in Ducks". Causes, prevention, treatment, etc.

Another article to answer the question of how to choose the right breed with attached breed chart of common breeds, their characteristics, and laying information. Also includes list of resources.

I finally have an entry! I've been wanting to enter for a while, but just haven't had the gumption to finish any of the myriad of articles I've started. This one's been rattling around my brain all day, so I finally sat down to write it a few hours ago.

I've contacted CherriesBrood and she doesn't intend to do an article on Hardware Disease so I might. It may not get finished in time for the competition though.

Just a question since on topic of articles. I wrote a how to article on DIY chicken swing for the brooder and feel it is probably not for the contest but where would you recommend posting this? The DIY section are posts rather than articles. I may choose a third topic for the contest.

The members page section of the articles is a good place to post any article.

Is this already being done?
