Informative

I liked the information that this book has in it and recommend it for anyone who wants to start raising Chickens. Note: Be prepared to be a little bit subjected to her opinions not on the chickens but on what you need to do to ensure that you are not neglecting the earth and the environment by using materials that are not biodegradable. Overall...I recommend it.
