I see chickens in my yard!

Since moving to the country, I've often thought about getting some chickens to handle my insect problem. I jumped at the chance to review this book since I was already considering building a chicken coop. This book is very complete. I didn't need prior knowledge to dive in. After listening to the book, I was inspired to get my first chicken. I named her Lucy. I also plan to get a rooster, which I will call Ricky. Now, I need to keep the dog away from her. Highly recommended for anyone who is even thinking about getting chickens.

Covers it all!

It's my dream to raise chickens in my background but I've always been too overwhelmed! I figured it would be too complicated for a beginner and that I wouldn't be able to take proper care of them. But this guide was an amazing companion to lay it all out on the table, from care to feeding to breeds and even how they communicate - I feel like I'm so knowledgeable now on what it requires to care for chickens properly and mitigate various types of risk. It's a very comprehensive audiobook & I'm glad I came across it
