Storey's Guide to Raising Chickens, 4th Edition: Breed Selection, Facilities, Feeding, Health Care, Managing Layers & Meat Birds

Bought for a present for a family member so not sure about the content (all the reviews online said this this the author to choose though) but very impressed with the quality, even though it was listed as used the book doesn’t even look like it’s been opened!

This book along with The Chicken Health Book , by the same author, is my absolute go to if I have any worries about my newly acquired Ex Battery hens, both books give excellent advice on DIY first aid and what to do in an emergency, I'm not happy to look at the part about meat so I don't.

Comprehensive and knowledgeable treatment that goes beyond the basics.

Interesting ,covers lots of areas And written in clear English not too much gobbledygook

This is a great book if you are interested in raising chickens. This book is definitely a true “how to” book and not just a book spitting out facts. I love how the book has plenty of visuals and has plenty of color. It’s a fun and informative book to read. This book definitely well prepares you for chickens. I hope this review helps :)

I just became a first-time chicken owner with the acquisition of 4 little chicks, ranging from 3-6 days old, and this book has been immensely helpful and comprehensive for alleviating any anxiety about their care. Three weeks in, I’ve already consulted it numerous times, as the chicks grow and develop. It’s easy to read and follow, with an excellent contents page and index for seeking specific information. I’m sure it will become a well-thumbed Bible over years to come!

Bought based on reviews, the book isn't well written, several repetitive sections and not very detailed. I was ready to buy the entire series, I won't now.

It explains things in a way that gives the reader easy steps to follow to raise chickens. Very informative.

Muchos buenos consejos para criar pollos. Pero no describe ni caracteriza muchas razas.
