I agree! I usually sound like a moron at poultry shows when i'm trying to talk "chicken".

I have to 3rd this! I'm getting smarter though...I ask the lady @ my feed store how to say it b/c I give her SOO much money she wouldn't DARE make me look like an idiot

Wyandotte was the particular one that got me.... 'Y-and-dot'-right? I was thinking 'Y-and-dough-te'

Last time I checked the breeds section on the state page had very little breed info...what about getting volunteers (w/appropriate breed experience of course) to gather some info/pix to help build up that stuff....or even maybe put links from the forum posts about breeds on there?

I didn't read through everything, so forgive me if these are duplicate requests:

- More candling images

- More stickies (of repeated topics)

- easy to view pics of each breed, perhaps a list of breeds on one page that are clickable. Members could add notes about their experiences, or special needs of each breed...

We do have an on-going Chicken Breed Pages contest. Many members have submitted pages.

There are lists of repeated questions posted under FAQ/Frequently Asked Questions and the Important Thread Archive.

Hope this helps!

I mentioned it a while ago but I will ask again. I would like to see a Picture of Breeds page. People could put pictures in there, would be a great help to people looking for birds or even figuring out what they have.

I hope you would have a mod control it instead of people just tossing whatever pictures they like into categories. Not sure if you can handle that much picture traffic thou.

So someone would click the page then there would be a list of names. You would click for instance silkie. Photos of silkies would pop up then you could pick photos to view that would then be enlarged.

Thanks Nifty

PS Hi Speckledhen nice to see you to, ive been around just not posting much lately.

PSS Edit Just noticed the breeds section. Same idea just hoping for more pictures ;-)

What about a "User Guide" that points out some of the lesser used/ noticed features. I tend to click, click, click, and ask questions later. For instance, I never even noticed the search feature until someone pointed it out recently on another thread! : ) I said I was very click happy!

A prominent link direct to the *How to* pages somewhere at the top of the forums might reduce the same questions being asked daily

Right at the top of the forums there is an FAQ forum
