Very well-explained information is given. Anyone who is a chicken-lover or keeps chickens should take this course. It's not too much to learn. The videos are short and to the point, yet well-explained. A very good course.

Dr. Sandilands is a fantastic instructor -- knowledgeable, great communicator and engaging. I signed up for this course just to see how the concepts were covered. I didn't expect to enjoy it as much as I did. Thanks!

Very good intro course about chicken welfare, behaviour, and overview of production industries, especially for animal science or pre-vet students like myself. Would highly recommend. I like that it is self paced too.

This was a great intro course for someone interested in chicken behavior and welfare. Although geared more towards commercial farming, chicken hobbyists will still learn important things about keeping chickens.

The course is logic and interesting, not boring at all. As a vet I can use this course to improve my skill in practice easily and I'm sure you will find it useful/enjoy like I did too.

This course is well taught and I really enjoyed how they broke up the modules into little comprehensible lessons. I learned a lot. I wish there was more material because it was an interesting course.

It's an excellent course for understanding the Chicken behaviour and welfare.

Thanks to University of Edinburg & Coursera for providing this opportunity.

Gracias a COURSERA por difundir esta valiosa información, estoy por iniciar un proyecto de permacultura y gracias a este curso podré gestionar de mejor manera mi futuro gallinero. Gracias!!!!!!

I loved the course. Me and my family have a small flock so I was very interested in their welfare. Now I feel like I can be a better owner. I think that I achieved all the objetives. Thank you

Excellent course. I wanted a basic understanding before getting some backyard chickens, this course went above and beyond my requirements, while still being accessible to a novice. Thank you.

This course is very well structured. The lecture delivery is impressive using all the helping materials as pictorials and videos. The given links and supporting material are very helpful.

Excellent course, excellent instructor. Difficult to hear some of the material at times as emotional and sensitive. I am happy to be vegan and let birds be free of pain and suffering.

perfectly organised and set on many short videos which makes learning much easier and simplified and i found all the topics very interesting and very well explained by the professor

fantastic course and if could you add the poultry feed formulation by using computer software course in coursera.org it will be the best work.

thanks in advance with best Regards

Very useful in-depth information. A must for those interested in raising chickens - explaining the whys behind chicken behavior and how to correct or minimize unwanted behavior.

this is a great course for a beginner or an experienced chicken raiser or someone like me that has been out of it for Military service and trying to return to t raising birds.

thoroughly enjoyed this course. taught me a great deal about things I can and should be improving for my own. Helped me understand a lot more about the commercial side too.

The course was very informative and would like urban residents to do it because more than 90% of them don't know how chicken meat ends up in a supermarket butchery section.

El repaso de características de las aves vinculadas al bienestar animal es siempre adecuado. Conocer las normas en Europa y estudiar la posibilidad de adopción es positivo.

Ce cours ma vraiment aider à comprendre le comportement et le bien être des animaux. je vais directement l'appliquer à mon élevage domestique de volaile.Merci infiniment Dr

An informative course for backyard and commercial poultry farmers to improve welfare aspects in the process of chicken production whether its for meat or egg production.

the course was excellent and very informative, i have learnt alot about chicken behaviour and welfare, i dont regret commiting my time for this course, it was worth it.

i have some backyard chickens this course helps me a lot towards understanding them and i would like to say they are doing really well in terms of health and i am glad.

An excellent course, whether you have backyard poultry or just want to learn more about domestic, show or commercial poultry care, this course is a font of information.

Very interesting course. I have always considered raising backyard chickens and this helped tremendously in understanding chicken behavior and best practice guidelines
