Summary: Couldn't find a better book on raising chickens.
Comment: If you have done your research and found this book then you have done well, there is in my opinion NO better book for the beginner,intermediate or experienced backyard chicken grower.
Ms. Damerow covers all the subjects that you can think off, she even has an extensive section on disease and pests and their prevention.If you buy just one book on Chickens this should be it.

Summary: If you buy just one book on chickens - this should be it !
Comment: I bought a second book not sure just which I would find to be the most helpful. It was completely plain to see that Storey's was the most comprehensive and informative even for the not so experienced backyard chicken family. If you are going to buy just one book to use as a reference for raising chickens I would recommend Storey's. From the get go, Storey's explains the best breeds of chickens for the use you plan to raise them for, how to build the coop determinded on the size of your brood to doctoring your sick chickens and then showing your best chickens. For the backyard chicken raising family this should be your number one book of choice.

Summary: Great For a Beginner
Comment: I bought this book to get me started in my chicken endeavors and have found it to be enormously helpful. For someone with limited knowledge, it's a great place to start. The organization is easy to follow and the information seems sound. Although I have needed to consult other resources for specific (perhaps unique) problems, it has helped me to get my flock off the ground (you know what I mean) and maintain it. It gives clear information about selecting a breed, designing the coop (several options are offered), feeding, tending to health problems, and butchering. I cannot attest to the chapter on incubation and hatching since I haven't tried it yet. As a primary resource for raising chickens, this book has been invaluable. My chickens are fine and healthy.
