Revised and updated, this is the most trusted and comprehensive reference you can find for chicken care, housing, feeding, and health care. Serious poultry farmers and backyard bird raisers have relied on this best-selling reference for more than 20 years. The fourth edition of Gail Damerowโs comprehensive handbook is now completely revised and redesigned, making it more accessible and informative than ever. Youโll get the most up-to-date details on shelter, food, health care, eggs, chicks, and meat, and recent research into chicken behavior and communication makes the sections on flock management truly authoritative. New color photos and illustrations provide more specificity and information about chicken breeds, anatomy, and health. Review: The encyclopedia of chicken technology - This book was very helpful. I quite frankly canโt think of a topic. It didnโt cover in good detail. I am very pleased with it. I think that the big spiral on the sides which prevents pages from tearing and ripping in the margins is very useful. If youโve got chickens, you better have this book on your shelf. All you need to do is have an answer one question and it could save you a lot of money. Review: Storeys Guide Chickens - This is a great book if you are interested in raising chickens. This book is definitely a true โhow toโ book and not just a book spitting out facts. I love how the book has plenty of visuals and has plenty of color. Itโs a fun and informative book to read. This book definitely well prepares you for chickens. I hope this review helps :)

The encyclopedia of chicken technology

Great all around book for everything you need to know
Very easy to read and follow. Covers a wide variety of Chicken topics and problems with different methods and resources to use. I call it my "chicken bible." There is so much information in this book from what to expect with different illnesses to different methods for culling. Very informational.

Touches on many subjects
This book touches on many subjects. But there have already been some things I wish it went further into detail on. The book is huge though, and there is still much I can learn from it. So, I get that it can't have everything on chickens because I can't imagine it being thicker than what it already is. So, I would recommend it, but I do wish some things were more deeply explained. As far as your basic how to raise chicken book, it's perfect.

A must read for residential chicken owners!
This is a must read for residential rookie chicken owners. Everything you need or may want to know about getting started and raising a healthy flock is in the bookโand perhaps too much in some cases. Eighteen months later we still have our original chickens, theyโre healthy and great layers. We owe a bit to this book.

Excellent guide for new chick owners
I just became a first-time chicken owner with the acquisition of 4 little chicks, ranging from 3-6 days old, and this book has been immensely helpful and comprehensive for alleviating any anxiety about their care. Three weeks in, Iโve already consulted it numerous times, as the chicks grow and develop. Itโs easy to read and follow, with an excellent contents page and index for seeking specific information. Iโm sure it will become a well-thumbed Bible over years to come!

Great quality
Bought for a present for a family member so not sure about the content (all the reviews online said this this the author to choose though) but very impressed with the quality, even though it was listed as used the book doesnโt even look like itโs been opened!
