I don't agree with many of the items listed. Some people seem to like to continue past "wisdoms" which have no basis in fact. Old articles which have long been disproven should not be a basis of fact.
A number of items listed are great (at least for my birds). We have moved our birds to Superworms which are a bit more costly but have a much higher nutrition level. We feed all sorts of fresh veggies, uncooked oatmeal, pea shoots, bean sprouts and occasionally canned or fresh corn. Since we do our own canning and can control what is in our food, we give our birds all sorts of things that I wouldn't give them out of a can. Our birds have laid all winter long and are now showing full plumage as well as happiness.

Well written and excellent information. Good list of what to avoid as well.

Great info for some people and I love the sense of humor used

Brought a wonderful smile to my face to know that my chicken math is always correct!

Wish I had had some of this advise when I started with chickens. We are permitted for 10 chickens and they have their choice of 2 coops and an enclosure of 130 square feet. I think that gives them lots of room to explore and or run if need be.

Nice description of the float test and how to perform it. Good info.

Outstanding information

Excellent review.
We use artificial grass as pads for our chickens. It's rare that we get a dirty egg, and if the pad gets soiled we just take it out and wash it. We keep a number of extras available all the time. We got ours at Lowes and they had an end of run so they gave it to us for free.

Mostly the same ideas as other articles. I'm going to try frozen watermelon tomorrow. We are about to hit 119 degrees and I'm worried about my girls. All the younger ones are now ensconced in my dining room where it is cool, but my laying hens are still outside.

Living where it can get to 115 degrees it is vital that we help our chickens cool off as much as possible. There were some good ideas in this article that could help almost anyone with chickens in the heat.

Great job. Great info especially for a person new to chickens. Since we have our flock quarantined because of Bio-Security we don't allow anyone other than those who normally work with the chickens to be anywhere near them. They can watch from a distance.

Good article - good information
We planted wheat grass for our chickens. The love it

Very short on real info as to what is ok to feed chickens. It's summer and my chickens love ice cold watermelon as well as other cold fruits like grapes and tomatoes.

Residents need to know that zoning variances are available at nominal cost and a bunch of paper work. I think its important for people to know this because there are lots of people in the city with more than 5 chickens that do not have them legally.
