Expanding your flock -- Flock behavior -- Life with a rooster -- All about eggs -- Chicken (and egg) health -- Predators -- Feeding your chickens -- Chicken keeping through the seasons -- Coop truth.
A must-have for every backyard chicken keeper, Backyard Chickens Beyond the Basics goes beyond introductory lessons and explores the realities of raising a flock for eggs -- and entertainment, of course! From odd eggs and molting to feeding and preparing for the seasons, this book covers the subjects beginner books don't adequately address and re-examines common knowledge that may not actually hold true. It's a resource to turn to time and again for expert advice to make sure your birds are happy, healthy, and productive.
