Chickens for the backyard homesteader : the essential guide to choosing and keeping happy, healthy hens / Suzie Baldwin ; photography by Cristian Barnett ; illustrations by Becca Thorne.
"Chickens are back! More-relaxed suburban and urban ordinances on raising and housing chickens, plus the desire for homeowners to become more self-sufficient as "backyard homesteaders," has led to renewed interest across the country in keeping chickens. Chickens for the Backyard Homesteader is packed with tips, strategies, and advice that gives readers the confidence to look after their hens and avoid common problems"--Provided by publisher.
