You all have inspired me.  I'm going to write an article about my pullet Forrest Gump and raising special needs chicks.  

<<<< That is Forrest in my avatar pic.  

I'm happy we've inspired you! I think special needs chickens are great, we have one named Moo Cow!

If/when I get more ideas I'll pop them into the list I made earlier. There is at least one more that I cannot for the life of me think off right now

Good idea! Especially on keeping the smells down in there. There is nothing like a chicken run on a rainy day to make you reconsider the hobby
