This book is one of my favorite two chicken purchases…
Format: Paperback
This book and this automatic chicken door are my favorite purchases for chickens. The book is superb and very helpful. So nice to have a resource to turn to, when the girls are in need. We recently had a chicken that may have been egg bound or nearly so. Look that up on the internet and you are bombarded with ads on so called chicken sites. What is up with that? With the book you just get pure information. So nice. The Chicken Health HandBook: https://amzn.to/3V1AZWR The chicken door has been flawless and helps out so much and is a time and step saver. We have had the door a bit over one year. Still have not changed the batteries. It has been flawless. Not every purchase goes that way. Chicken door: https://amzn.to/3WRTKi6 I built a coop by hand, using hand tools only, except for a power tool to cut plywood. I used a Japanese saw to make all my cuts. I got so proficient I could cut left handed (I am right handed) standing on one foot and cut the 2x4 perfectly! Saw: https://amzn.to/3x0Xtz7 The right saw really makes a difference. I made hundreds of cuts. We bought a lot of items for chickens, coop and all to make it go. The chicken door was in some ways the crowning glory of convenience. The book is a lifesaver and valuable resource. I hope this review helps…

THIS is the book I've looked for!
Format: Paperback
Been raiding chickens for twenty years and have purchased many books on the subject. This is the first comprehensive flock management book I've found. Desks extensively with illness and disease and treatment including dosage. It's not written for newbies and does not include fluffy stuff about the joy of chicken tending, show pictures of cute little coops, or talk extensively about how to select a breed, etc. All good useful important information that experienced chicken tenders need to know. Thanks!@@

Great but hard to lookup symptoms
Format: Paperback
The good news; very in depth. What could be better: hard to find what you're looking for without some kind of index by symptoms.

A Must for Chicken Owners. Great reference tool
Format: Paperback
I have only browsed through this book so far, but it seems really informative and full of useful tips. It's broken down really nicely in sections and has good illustrations. The pages in the book are of a good quality. You can tell the book is well manufactured/printed. It's very easy to look up an issue or problem and be able to reference it fast. The back of the book contains a quick guide to diseases and disorders. There is also a glossary and index to make referencing a breeze. Contents include Keeping Chickens Healthy, Good Nutrition Means Healthy Chickens, The Inner Chicken, Mysteries of Metabolism, What's Bugging Your Birds, When Chickens Get Wormy, Diseases Caused By Protozoa, Conditions Caused by Bacteria, The Fungus Among Us, Deseases Caused by Viruses, Management Issues, Diagnostic Guidelines, What's Going on Inside, Treatments and Therapies, and Your Chickens and Your Health. It's a great all around reference tool, especially when you don't have an avian veterinarian close by.
