Chickens (Flexi cover series)

This book was a great read, and, instead of giving a long, complicated description of why I liked it, here are some bullet points.

1) It was easy to read, the words flowed smoothly together.
2) The pictures were great, and often showed the chick maturing into an adult. (Or an adult of the same breed)
3) Gave informative information on the history of the chicken. (Did you know Greeks and Romans offered chickens as sacrifices to their gods?)
4) It tells you about chicken biology
5) It explains different breed atrributes
6) It tells you about adequate housing
7) It teaches you about different diseases and what to look for.

All in all, I liked this book, and I recommend it to anyone who would enjoy learning more about chickens.

I like that this book was written from a Brit, because it gives a different perspective on chickens. There are some minor differences from what the Americans say. It's a pretty basic book that goes a lot into history.

This is a good book with a lot of pictures that are really beautiful! There were a couple pictures though that were kind of disturbing, a "healthy" rooster with scaly leg mites was one of them. The information is all very basic and easy to read.
