This was such a fun and interesting article and the pictures where really terrific. I'd have like to have read some different perspectives though given the title of the article for learning aspects. Overall it left me with a smile.

I enjoyed this right up, kind of like 'Chicken Thinking for Dummies'. Very amusing and easy to read. The only issue is some of the statements are opinion based and not factual mainly in regards to the rooster behavior. I'd prefer this write up to have kept with actual cataloged information, not opinion-based, only concern and it is a small one at that.

I started growing Rolled Oats and Barley after reading about it on here and I've struggled with a great assembly line method with a limited amount of space. This seems like it will be the best idea for my setup I can find. Building one of these bad boys this spring, thanks so much for the pictures and instructions! Cheap as dirt (Literally) chicken fodder.

Thanks for the review and comments. Going vertical with the fodder flood and drain type tower system saves space, and labor, because you only have to dump water in the top bin. I literally spend less than 5 minutes per day and have about 8 bins of fodder growing in various stages. I figured that tower was good use of scrap lumber I had behind the garage and the $10 spent on new plastic bins paid for itself in feed costs in almost no time.

Green Tea is wonderful for humans, animals we can only guess. There is no data to support the authors premise, like most if not all natural products for chickens. However, tons of interesting information here and very well formatted. I enjoyed reading up on Green Tea~

Interesting information however, I would prefer if the herbs uses where highlight and made into a list format instead of just clumping all the information together. Kind of just piles on itself.

Feel this is a more expensive card board box, I embrace the idea just not the full design. Sure its easy and cheap, but really lacks in many departments. For one the ventilation idea seems like an after thought and seems poorly thought out. Ease of design and construction along with cost is awesome. In my humble opinion a roof should be a roof and chickens prefer side angles versus over the top predatory 'surprise'. Checking the nest box seems like a task, clean out...another task. Just leaves me with an over all 'Lets convert my dog house to a chicken box and call it affordable'.

Can't even post the correct predatory animal leaves to question the rest of the article from the start.

Fewer pictures of cute chicks and more information past the hypothesis. Definitely needs more work, unfinished to say the least.

I really enjoyed this write up! I usually don't, find so many lacking on here with a personal touch but not this one. Learned a lot, got a few smiles, studied the authors run set up and all the little personable comments. I'm completely sold on Buff's now.

A very well thought out collection of treats, some very minor incidents of vagueness (Scratch and Meal Worms, high in protein which in excess can cause obesity) but overall a great reference list for anyone who has birds.

Very vague, plain break down of some easily kept breeds of chickens. However, this 'review' really lacks any in-depth information and the little that is provided isn't necessarily accurate. For example, Austrolorps in the United States are available in more than just the black coloration...there are actually breeders believe it or not. They are also renowned for being very standoffish and not overly accepting of human interaction in a close proximity.
