How about "Incubating for Beginners," or "Beginner's Guide to Hatching Your Own Chickens," since "for Dummies" is probably protected.

Just in case you were asking because you were looking for such an article to read:

Aha! Should have known you had that covered, Pyxis! Thanks!

Some friends of mine had goats, and the goats would always eat pine needles from their pine trees. Pine needles have the natural ability of (repelling? Removing? Not sure which) internal parasites. Recently a vet came to examine their flock and said, "I have never seen a herd of goats so completely free of internal parasites."

I am working on finding a way to give pine needles to chickens. Maybe a tincture? Anyways, if I find out how, I will make an article. It is a great idea!

Goats are known to be able to eat just about anything. Be careful not to poison your chickens.

True, but humans can eat pine needle teas and tinctures, so I feel pretty safe feeding them to chickens. However, I will do some research. Thank you!
