Review: Pretty good for those getting started

Having read a dozen or more books on raising chickens, this one is as good as any and better than many. It covers some topics better than most other books do: Raising chicks, disease identification and prevention, formulas for making your own chicken feed. But it lacks a bit in the topics of the coop and physical requirements of the birds. It covers pretty much all the topics that a novice to chicken raising needs to know. The index makes topics easy to find and get to.  This is definitely a good book for those just getting started or thinking about raising chickens.(...)
