Clear and easy to navigate, good pictures.
Now before someone else jumps in, do you have to have NPIP or any other form of acreditation on there?

No NPIP yet, as this is at an all new address. Pens are in the process of being built right now, as are the barns, and roll out cages will be moved once the barn is up. New address in MI means new NPIP cert, which will be done either late summer or early fall. All of our birds are from NPIP stock, and we are liscenced by the state.

Hmmm.... kinda wierd for the dial up guys. I'll have to look into that one, might even switch over to a different hosting provider. MY ISP will host a small site for free, but is not the best for what I 'd like to be able to do. I'm testing the order page, and it's format isn't supported....

for prices, click the 'eggs' button, and then click the picture or the underlined name of the bird...

thanks for the feedback!

I got to the home page this morning, but no matter which button I picked that page was empty (blank).

I have dsl and the home page pics loaded a little slow, I think your picture sizes are too big, especially for dial up folks, which is why they aren't seeing them (it's taking too long for them to download).

Try compressing your pictures (under edit) and choose "web page" size.  You can get by with much less for a website.

Anyway, this is what I ran into when doing the bird dog club website I belong to.  It's easy to set it up for your viewing but you have to think about what everyone else out there has too and make it work for everyone.

Another thing I ran into was monitor size.  There are many 15" monitors still in use and if you make your page too wide, there will be people having to use the slide bar to pan back and forth, which is very disturbing for those people.

I'm on DSL at work and it seems to be working much better and alot faster than earlier today. Have dial-up at home and I will check that for you when I get home tomorrow.

No good for me on dial-up.  Home page loads as good as any other........but......none of the other pages will load at all.  Nothing but blank pages other than the home page.

I am also on Dinosaur Dial up, but it works good for me, I can open all the pages and click on all the pictures, such as the Tenn. Reds and get the egg prices $4.00 for 12.
C.H. maybe it is the way your Spam blocker or anti virus is set up?

Nope.  Have never had a problem with any website,  to date.  As far as I know, I don't have of that stuff running on my PC.  Had same problem at work with 2 different PC's on DSL as far as those pages being blank too.

Got me?    :-|

Thanks!!
