very frustrated December 27, 2008 I was very disappointed with this book. I had two very specific questions about my laying hens since they aren't laying. I could not find information for problem solving in this area. Also I read that you should not clean the hen house floor in the winter since it helps with insulation( I read this somewhere else) . I tried to find information about this in this book but could not find anything either way.
Excellent Introduction December 17, 2008 I am a born and raised city boy, and I found this book to be extremely helpful in introducing the basics of caring for chickens. There is some lack in details (slaughtering a chicken is much more difficult than a novice would expect) but 90% of the information is there, so it was worth every penny.
Excellect Reference Book October 22, 2008 Wonderful reference book on everything you need to know about raising chickens. It would have been nice if there was more information on the different breeds of chickens.
I love chicks! October 20, 2008 I grew up raising poultry but I haven't kept them as an adult. This guide is great. Very much as I remember keeping chickens, also a great guide to remember other things I may have forgotten.
This is the one you need September 15, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
If you do not know anything about raising chickens, this is the book for you. Easy to read and understand. Good discreption of possible problems with your flock. I have raised chickens for 6 years and this was even good for me as a refresher.
