I go this book for my birthday before I started my first flock. This book is full of information on how to raise chicks, feeding and watering, first aid and diseases, and even processing a chicken. I definitely recommend this book.

This has SO much info! It pretty much covers everything!

I had saw this book in the Tractor Supply store and went to the library to see if it was a good book. I was so impressed by it that I drove back right away to buy it.

It covers everything from how to build the coop, to artificial insemination, to small things like how eggs will keep longer if you do not remove the bloom, and several different ways to keep the spare eggs.

It is a large book, but not huge. Easy to understand and very comprehensive. I am getting answers to questions I would never have thought to ask.

Must have book!

This is a very good resource for those lookiing for a general chicken care handbook.

But we all know BYC is best than any printed material, as the vast quantity of help, inspiration and idea generation here is so much more than any one source could provide!

Get the book for your shelf - come here for inspiration!

This book is a must have! It has a bit of everything and is great for beginners. I would get this book if your looking for the basics for raising chickens. Hope this review helps.

I bought this book when I was talking about getting chickens. Didn't know a thing about them. I read and read this book. Went to a chicken auction a few months later and bought my first 4 girls. I am proud of what I picked. Silver Laced Wyandottes, big, healthy, friendly, dependable. I love them. This book is a must have especially for beginners. Im using it now to hatch my own eggs.
