Welcome to Feather & Flock (thefeatherandflock.com). By using this site, you agree to the terms below. If you don’t agree with them, please don’t use the site.
1. What this site is
Feather & Flock publishes general-interest articles about keeping backyard chickens and ducks — coop building, breeds, predator-proofing, raising chicks, feed, health, and related homesteading topics. Content is written to be genuinely useful and is based on our own research and experience, but it is provided for general informational purposes only.
2. Not professional advice
Nothing on this site is veterinary, medical, financial, legal, or other licensed professional advice, and it isn’t a substitute for it. This is our best effort to share accurate, practical information — but every flock, property, budget, and local situation is different, and we are not a substitute for someone qualified to look at your specific circumstances.
- Animal health: If a bird is sick, injured, or behaving abnormally, contact a licensed veterinarian (ideally one with poultry experience) rather than relying on anything you read here. Articles about symptoms, illnesses, or treatments are general background only, not a diagnosis or a treatment plan for your animals.
- Money and cost estimates: Any prices, budgets, cost comparisons, or savings estimates on this site are rough, general, and can be out of date the moment they’re published. Get current, local quotes before making a purchase or building decision, and talk to a qualified professional before making decisions with real financial consequences.
- Building and structural advice: Coop and run plans are starting points, not engineering guarantees. Check your own local building codes, HOA rules, and predator pressure before building.
Use your own judgment, verify anything important against a current, qualified source, and don’t delay getting real help (a vet, a contractor, a financial professional, your local extension office) because of something you read on a blog — including this one.
3. No guarantees
We try to keep information accurate and up to date, but we make no promises that it is complete, current, or error-free. Backyard-keeping regulations, product availability, and best practices change, and something correct when written may not stay correct.
4. Third-party links and content
This site may link to or embed content from other websites, videos, or products we don’t control (including, at times, affiliate or sponsored links). We aren’t responsible for the accuracy, safety, or policies of any third-party site, and a link doesn’t mean we endorse everything on it.
5. Your use of the site
You agree not to misuse the site — for example, by attempting to disrupt it, scrape it abusively, or post unlawful, harassing, or infringing content in any comments or interactive features we offer. We can remove content or restrict access at our discretion.
6. Intellectual property
Unless otherwise noted, the text, images, and design on this site belong to Feather & Flock or its licensors. You’re welcome to share links to our articles; please don’t republish full articles or images without permission.
7. Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Feather & Flock is not liable for any loss or damage — including harm to animals, property, or finances — arising from your use of, or reliance on, this site. You use the information here at your own risk.
8. Changes to these terms
We may update these terms from time to time. Continued use of the site after an update means you accept the revised terms.
