Writing a book...

[Mei&Popcorn]

Hi! For a school project, I was going to write a small book about the basics of raising chickens (probably easier said than done, but oh well!). So, I'm asking you guys - what should I cover in the book? For example, food, water, etc. Please give specifics and common problems if you can, or things that would have made it easier for you to start raising chickens. I know a lot of people who want to raise chickens, but they're kind of scared.... So, we're here to convince them!


Thanks!!

On another note, I don't know where I'd post this, so I posted it here...

You could cover proper nutrition, how to get started with raising chicks, chicken coops, even egg recipes.
I am currently writing a chicken book to and I use Bookemon.com.
Good luck!

Chicken breeds and how to tell a rooster from a hen would be good too.....

Thanks! I didn't think of the difference between roosters and hens... Anyone have other suggestions/ideas?
