This comprehensive book provides all the information kids
(or adults) need to know to raise healthy backyard chickens. Melissa Caughey,
author of the award-winning blog Tilly’s Nest, writes in an engaging,
easy-to-read way, but doesn’t leave out any of the important practical details
chicken owners will need to know. She offers a list of best breeds for
different climates and families and includes tons of great photos of chickens
as well as their coops, feeders, etc. Especially fun are all the recipes she
includes, both the human kind - to use up all those wonderful fresh eggs - and recipes
for chicken treats and toys.
