THE PERFECT BOOK ABOUT RAISING CHICKENS
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 14 years ago
I can't imagine a better book about raising chickens. Gail Damerow covers EVERY RELEVANT SUBJECT. Her writing style is so great that I find myself reading just for the pleasure of it. Her 40+ years of experience raising chickens has acquainted her with every possible subject and issue. She has also consulted with other experts to give the reader an even wider view on many subjects. I LOVE THIS BOOK!

Book is great, perfect condition, and is practically an encyclopedia of information about chix. It did seem like it took a long time to receive it--in excess of 3 weeks.
