  • One of the Best Books on Chickens I Have Ever Read

    Couldn't find a better book on CHICKENS! Easy to read. Great to share with young folks and adult friends. My work mates get lots of information on chickens now at the coffee break. Lots of wonderful tips. All levels of learning. You will find helpful and interesting information. I never knew there was so much to these little birds! I have lived around chickens for 20 plus years. They are more meaningful to me now. Even little buddies!!! Thank you for writing such a wonderful book. My hens are happier too! Lots of great tips on care and foods and so much more.. Paperback and well made sturdy pages and cover. KT

  • The chicken health handbook by Gail Damerow

    Every person that has backyard chickens should read this book to know anything about them. Otherwise there’s a lot of baloney anecdotal information floating around as usual with these types of things.
