Description
Self-sufficiency and organic living have gained popularity in recent years, with hen keeping becoming increasingly popular. This comprehensive guide provides an introduction to the key aspects of acquiring a self-sufficient lifestyle by keeping your own chickens. You don't need a large garden to keep poultry, as just a couple of hens can provide a steady supply of fresh eggs throughout the year. The set-up costs are minimal and you don't require expensive equipment or gadgets to care for your chickens. This book covers essential topics such as housing, food and water, daily care, disease prevention and cure, and encouraging egg production and breeding. It also provides information on available breeds and a list of useful resources to help you get started with your own backyard flock.
