I liked the article!
Pros: I've never kept stars but I liked the information on the article!
Cons: I wish there were more pictures and just a bit more information.
Thank you for writing all the statistics! I appreciate them, they are a quick way to figure out if a chicken is good to keep or not.

Great Friendly Chickens!
Pros: Friendly and easy to handle
Calm and quiet temperament
Cons: Medium egg productivity
ok broodiness for hatching chicks
I really like my Orpingtons! They’re super friendly and easy to deal with—great if you’re new to chickens. They’re also really calm and quiet, so no annoying noise, which is nice if you live somewhere a little tighter. They lay decent-sized brown eggs, though not a ton of them. I love how they look. they are pretty birds with lots of color options. They’re on the heavier side, but they can still fly short distances if they want to. All in all, I definitely recommend them!

Damaged parts and the company ignores you
Pros: It's a kit and you don't have to design and buy material yourself
Cons: It's expensive, it's cheaply made, and the company provides no support
Delivery took much longer than it said. Only 2 of the 3 boxes showed up. Took another couple of weeks for the 3rd box to arrive. Parts were damaged and they promised to send them when they were in stock. Received a fake tracking number for those parts and now the company ignores me.

Excellent incubator!
Pros: Too many to list - Stable temperature & humidity. Easy to set up. Easy to clean.
Cons: Doesn't have a water reservoir. The power cord is a little loose and can get knocked out.
The Ovation 56 EX Connect is an absolute game-changer! It takes a well-tested, reliable incubator and adds remote app access, which allows me to monitor and control the incubator from anywhere using my smartphone. With the app I can quickly check and/or adjust temperature, humidity, turning (on/off/interval), or adjust any of the other settings if needed—all from my phone! No more running back and forth to check on things! Setting up the incubator was simple, and connecting it to Wi-Fi was straightforward and easy. The interchangeable egg trays allow me to incubate both large and small eggs simultaneously, and I use the incubator to hatch chicken, duck, turkey eggs, and peafowl eggs. This is an incubator that I can recommend to anyone who wants the latest in connected incubator technology.

A great history of the Orpington!
Pros: They're sweet and social and are fairly reliable layers.
Cons: They get broody often and need to be broken.
I loved this article, it was very informative! I especially liked the organization of the statistics at the top. I didn't know pretty much anything about what was covered here!

Legbar

Updated
I love my cream crested legbar mix rooster
Pros: Very sweet to his girls, BEAUTIFUL coloring (everyone who comes over always says to us what a beautiful boy he is!) He is also typically very gentle and nice to new chicks.
Cons: Skittish, smaller roo so very prone to getting bullied by bigger roosters, large comb and wattles which are prone to frostbite.
I love my rooster Benny, he is a cream crested legbar mix. He was sold to us as an olive egger, but he is definitely part legbar because he has a crest:)
