Reseña del editor:

The trend toward healthy, natural, organic foods is growing - and with that, folks are turning the clock back to the time when kitchen gardens and keeping small animals - fowl, goats, rabbits - for food were common. Raising chickens is a great choice because they can provide both eggs and meat, though many people use them primarily for one or the other. If you are considering raising chickens and need to know more, this book will give you the basics on how to choose, raise and maintain your chicken brood, from designing and building your coop, to feeding, care and even highlighting specific illnesses and issues to look out for. Raising chickens can be fun and rewarding, and is a great project for the whole family, with the benefit of providing you with delicious, wholesome foods. In this booklet you will learn: * How to build a coop for housing chickens * Setting up a "brooder" area for baby chicks * Supplies you will need for keeping chickens * Types of food for meat chickens and egg layers * Breeds of chickens suitable for beginners * Common chicken issues * About special breeds
