Saw this short book at the library and picked it up because we have a sudden opportunity to get some chickens and I have no idea where to start! This is an excellent book for beginners because it covers a wide range of information and is very quick and easy to read. It also has beautiful pictures.
This is an easy-to-read guide to chickens with ample illustration. I think it is really useful--but I don't have chickens yet. I am only beginning the research now: and number one is finding a cheap way to build a coop!
Not a lot of detailed or useful information. More of an introduction to chickens in a backyard setting. I would suggest "Storey's Guide to Raising Chickens" as a more comprehensive guide.

The best part of this book is the photos, but there is also good information in an easy to read format. Bring on the chickens!

Nice pictures, but Keeping Chickens by Hobson and Lewis is better.
