Poultry farming is not an exact science, but the ability to do it well implies good levels of competence, commitment, and attention to detail. Although they are very resistant creatures, hens, like any other animal grown in a domestic environment, are vulnerable to the effects of carelessness and poor wellbeing. It is essential to deal with the essential aspects properly, but this requires a solid knowledge of the most important elements, such as the choice of the hen house, the feed, the breed, and health needs.
This volume provides both beginners and experienced breeders the information necessary to solve the bud's difficulties, or rather, to avoid them entirely.
From health to the henhouse and from parasites to predators, every key element is dealt with in detail, with photographs, practical advice, and useful insights.
