What the course covers
- Choosing your first three birds: the decision matrix, breed shortlist, hatchery selection
- Coop design from scratch: site selection, dimensions, hardware, ventilation, predator defence
- The first 12 weeks: brooding chicks, transitioning to the coop, flock integration
- Seasonal management: molt, winter water, supplemental light, spring management
- Feed reading and ration management: guaranteed analysis, methionine, calcium, scratch strategy
- Health observation: the 11 behavioral signals, mite management, when to cull
- Ordinance and neighbor management: how to check, how to communicate, variance petition basics
Price: $249 — one-time, no subscription
