They come in all shapes and sizes: some are layers, some are just born to strut. Mark Diacono begins at the basics, showing how you can raise chickens from eggs, and look after them once they start laying their own. The first part of Chicken & Eggs explains how to think ahead about what kind of chickens you want and how many to get, whether you are going for a breed that lays eggs regularly, or that you might eventually use for eating, or that simply looks decorative. You can choose from Orpingtons, Derbyshire redcaps, Muffed Old English Game, Leghorns and many more. Mark then goes on to show how you can breed chickens, encourage them to lay, work out what kind of eggs you have (are they destined for the eggcup, or will they hatch into baby chicks?), and take care of them day to day, as well as how you can go about getting the birds on the table. The final part of the book is a recipe section that goes far beyond the roast, with lots of delicious ideas for fresh eggs or home-reared chicken. With an introduction by Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall, this is an essential guide for anyone who can't stop thinking about chicks. Review: Great comprehensive guide to the benefits of chicken keeping - Mark is great and really knows his stuff. The pictures in this book are beautiful. The book is very informative with information on both heritage and hybrid breeds. It doesn't go into tons of knitty gritty detail but it is a perfect place to start for the beginner and will send you well on your way. I also like that it is hardback. We own the entire RC handbook collection. Review: Mostly about raising chickens - This does not have as many recipes as River Cottage's other books. It is mostly a handbook for raising chickens. Very informative and as always, well written. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #3,370,504 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #833 in Poultry Cooking #927 in Cheese & Dairy Cooking #1,191 in Bird Care | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 out of 5 stars 205 Reviews | ## Images ![Chicken & Eggs: River Cottage Handbook No.11 - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/818hZr0lqqL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great comprehensive guide to the benefits of chicken keeping *by A***A on July 19, 2013* Mark is great and really knows his stuff.
