Please just PM if interested in any of these. Shipping media mail for each will be $3. I will combine shipping if interested in more than one or sell all together for a bit less. If you would like a faster shipping service, let me know. I have decided to whittle down my book collection, as I am running out of room to keep them all!!! These books have served me well and enhanced my knowledge of the basics of keeping my little farm going well. Even if I weren't selling them I highly recommend each one, for various reasons!

The Joy of Keeping Farm Animals by Laura Childs
Retail price $14.95 condition NEW asking price $10
Outlines basic necessary knowledge for keeping chickens, goats, pigs, sheep, and cows. Illustrated. 238 pages. I JUST bought this book the other day, so it's fresh off the shelf. It is great in detailing the differences between different livestock and housing/feeding needs. Great resource for a hobby farmer.
Condition listed as new, because I settled on this book literally last week when they did not have the one I really wanted in stock...then I found the one I wanted tonight. So, needless to say I have no need for this one now, and am too lazy to look for the recipt to return it.
I cracked it open one time, it still smells like wet ink!
