I have two criticisms for this book. The first - that it wasn't around ages ago when my family started raising chickens. The second - that it made me desperately miss keeping chickens!

"My Pet Chicken" is a fantastic resource for chicken newbies, as it covers all aspects of caring for and living with these fascinating birds. It's a good read for experienced chicken caretakers too - the Breed Selector Guide and the tips for identifying illnesses and predators are great references to have on hand. Not to mention all the egg-centered recipes at the end!

I've got chickens on the brain. This book was really informative, but my decision is still shaky. It seems chickens are simultaneously easy and difficult to raise.
