I found this book very informative & well put together. It has excellent photograrphs & discriptions of how to tend to the chickens. A must if you are to keep chickens.
Recommended! - By: , 30 Jun 2005
I thoroughly recommend this book. There is a wealth of information crammed into its modest size, making it a must-have for chicken keepers; beginners & old-hands alike.

It enters into adequate detail for most keepers' day-to-day needs regarding housing, health etc., but (hence the 4/5 rating), you may wish to buy some more specialised books on the above to find more in-depth information.

The breed section is excellent, giving far more detail (and photos) than any other book I've read. The info included is relevant & up-to-date, which is great if you've not got the time to trawl through specialist breed books.

This book is a visual treat, having a simple but effective layout, & of course being packed full of high quality, captioned photos of every breed featured. There are a number of mistakes in the alllocation of the captions, but we can forgive them for that, considering the amount of photos to be captioned!

Overalll, a great read at a great price!
