Here it is cold crashed. I noticed it was still letting some gas out of the airlock, but it's slowed wayyyy down.

for 5 gal i typically need about 48-50 12oz bottles, so you'll need about 40 bottles. Better get drinking! I prefer Goose Island bottles.. Why buy new bottles when you can enjoy some great beer in the process?

I typically will rack at 1.016 and this will slow down the ferment to a crawl. Then leave it in the secondary to clear for about a week. The fermentation doesn't do much in this one week period. Then I rack to bottling bucket with 1/4 gal of original juice and bottle. Wait 1-2 weeks to carb up and have a clear, crisp, sweet and sparkling cider.

After you have racked it into the secondary and waited a week, have you taken the FG? I'd be curious to know what that is so if I find mine to be lower/higher, I could adjust my addition of juice accordingly (though I will probably do a few taste tests for good measure).

1.014 is the lowest it has been after the 1 week in the secondary. It doesn't move much. I try to bump it back up to 1.016 with the 1/4 gallon of juice. I estimate is probably ends at 1.014 again in the bottle by the time i pasturize.
