Raising chickens at home? How? Starting from whether it is allowed, what is needed, and what to do if they get sick, I think people like me would have a hard time figuring it out. I was curious, so I listened to it. Surprisingly, it provided necessary information and knowledge step by step in an easy-to-understand way for even a layman like me, a beginner. This book perfectly organizes all the questions, answers, and solutions from the beginning of chicken feeding to the end. I want to try it once I move to a house with a yard. Thanks to this, I learned about chickens. I am very excited about how I will feel when I get my first egg from the chickens I raised.

I remember being around chickens all through childhood. Being a country boy, it's just a part of the culture! But when you grow up and consider raising them yourself, there are a whole lot of things to consider, even if you think you know a thing or two about them.

Well, this audio by Avery Sage really answered the questions that need answering! Even covers things you wouldn't think to ask, like composting, journaling, and social behavior.

The writing was very encouraging, down-to-earth, beginner-friendly and clear, and empowers you to make your own choices. The flow is very organized and logical. And I found the narration very warm and pleasant.

Great for modern homesteaders, or those curious about taking care of chickens. Recommended!

Clear, Friendly, and Full of Great Info!
