I loved this article! I already do some of the things listed. I have had exotic pet birds for years, and I do a lot of the same things for my chickens.

I appreciate all guidelines concerning what to feed chickens. I like to slip dandelion greens through the mesh on top of their run, so they have to jump for it. I also like to spread natural peanut butter on whole grain bread and cut it up into little pieces. One hen grabs a piece and runs with it while the other inspects each one before she chooses.

I enjoyed this article. But I live in the desert southwest grass is scarce.

This was very helpful. Most of my eggs are clean when I gather them, but once in a while I get a dirty smudge. Then I clean it.

This article was a lot to think about. When I first decided to have chickens, I did not have the materials or the know how to build my own coop. I ordered a prefab coop on Amazon and added a run. I have been making modifications as needed, but I felt that that was best as I was a beginner. At some point, I would like to get more chickens, and I will then be working on a better coop.

I enjoyed reading this article. I have two Easter Eggers that are 7 months old and I have been getting eggs since they were 5 months old. I average 2 a day.

I love this article! I'm going to try some of the ideas listed here. I like to push dandelion greens through the mesh on top of the run, so they jump up to get them. I tried hanging a head of broccoli for them, but they were afraid of it. I ended up pulling the florets off the main stalk and tossing them to them.
