Latest reviews

Eggcellent book
Pros: Explains in depth every kind of issue you may face while raising chickens for any purpose
Has a helpful illness guide in the back
Cons: May be a bit thick to read at times
This is one of the only chicken books I have, and the only one I need. It has helped me so much over the years. I have studied it so much that the pages all fell apart and I had to buy a new one :D

Pros: If you can only have one chicken book this is the one I would recommend.
Very informative. Lots of good information
Cons: Didn't find any.
Pros: Informative, Explains how a disease works and how to basically keep a chicken healthy,
Cons: Missing a couple new diseases May be a challenge to read for young children
Keeping a chicken healthy is harder than it seems. There are so many problems and illnesses a chicken can have that it can fill a book! And that's exactly what it did. The Chicken Health Handbook does a great job explaining a whole bunch of different conditions that a chicken can get and how to recognize them and cure them. There's a lot of Biology to this book! The only problem I found with it was that there are diseases like West Nile Syndrome and Egg Drop Syndrome that did not exist until after this was published and there have most likely been some ways to cure, know what causes a certain illness found out after the 2000's. This is an amazing read and is worth getting.
