Wow! What a lot of information. I didn't read it from beginning to end, but did skim.
I did like the round perch thing. I did like the metal cage to break broodiness. I did like all the stuff on incubation that I don't have to worry about because I rely on the broody hens.

Maybe the astro turf around the roost is a bad idea because the chickens might eat it and get sick? Turf stuck in crop?
