NPIP!? Those who have gotten NPIP certified what was the process like? Will they judge me for not having esthetically pleasing coops!?
Our take
Curious about the NPIP certification process? You’re not alone! Many chicken keepers wonder what to expect when their feathered friends are up for inspection. If you've seen coops adorned with wallpaper and chandeliers, you might feel a tad self-conscious about your own setup—especially if yours is a cozy, mismatched creation made from pallets and scrap wood. Fear not! The NPIP inspectors are primarily focused on assessing the health and cleanliness of your birds, rather than critiquing your coop's aesthetics. While they do look at overall conditions, the main goal is to ensure your flock is healthy and happy. Join the conversation and share your experiences, as well as any tips for navigating the NPIP process with confidence and a touch of humor!
| | I see everyone with beautiful coops with wallpaper and chandeliers. My coops are verv basic, ualv, miss matched and built by us with scrap pallets and wood. My chickens free range and only get cooped at night so thev aren't in the coops much. Are they just there to test the birds? Or are there other things that they are looking at too?
