Filled with down-to-earth, common-sense advice, this absolute beginner's guide for first-time chicken keepers teaches you everything you want and need to know about raising a backyard flock.

Keeping backyard chickens can be fun and simple, even if you have limited backyard space. To get started keeping backyard poultry, you'll learn about:

  • The benefits of a backyard chicken flock
  • Tips on negotiating chicken-keeping regulations
  • How to select a breed to suit your needs
  • The incubation process
  • The art of brooding
  • Setting up coops and runs
  • Proper poultry nutrition
  • How to protect your flock from predators
  • Illness prevention and treatment
With this knowledge, you can enjoy a more sustainable lifestyle with fresh eggs, free fertilizer (chicken poop!), and reduced household waste (chickens love table scraps!). Delight in the journey and achieve success with First Time Chicken Keeping.

Each book in the First Time series distills how-to guidance and advice from an expert on a specific topic into targeted step-by-step instruction geared toward the absolute beginner.
