I have had chickens at various points over a period of 30+ years, in several different locations, in several different styles of coops. My introductory post on BYC was at a time when I did not have chickens.
Some people like to take photos frequently, and some people do not. I am one of the ones who do not.
Also, even though this forum may have many people who are comfortable posting lots of pictures of their chickens, homes, family, etc, I am not comfortable posting that kind of stuff. I have posted some anecdotes of personal experiences at various points, usually years after it happened.
Saying "personal preference and lack of photos" was the most concise way I could think of to express all that.
You missed quite a few, although they are probably a small percent of my total posts.

That does make sense, and I agree about the problems of re-posting wrong information. I generally try to be clear about whether I am making a guess, or repeating what other people have said, or I explain why I say something so people can check my logic, or I give sources for what I say. I recognize the value of personal experience, and some of what I say is based on that, but that is the easiest thing to fake online so I try to only give that when it seems especially relevant. There have been a few times in the past when I got very irritated by someone who basically said "I'm an expert, so you should take my word for it." I try not to do that to people.
I agree, and if I ever have a question where a picture will provide useful information, I will then go take a picture and post it. So far I have not had such a question. (I use the search function instead of posting a new thread about something that has been answered many times before, and I have never yet had a chicken problem that needed more specific help than I could find that way.)
Those are all good reasons, but I am still not willing to post photos.
If you prefer that I refrain from posting anything else in this thread, I can do that. (Your thread, your rules. Just tell me if that's what you want.)
