I've had Hens for years but loved reading this well illustrated book. It even told me the correct width for perches in my new WIR rather than the 'about an inch' I'd mentioned to my carpenter. Surprise surprise the hens now use the perches much more than they had in the old run! So there's always more to learn! ;o)

This book would be an ideal introduction to anyone setting out to keep chickens. I am currently leaving it around the house to spur the interest of my son. I have had chickens in the past but am meeting resistance from my son who thinks it will be far too much work. If I can only get him to realise the joy of hens this book will explain to him all he needs to know.

Facts and info very clearly and comprehensively stated.

I have never kept chickens and wanted to be sure that I had a good grounding in what would be required. This book is fantastic, easy to read and gives an allround picture of keeping chickens. I especially liked that the chapters were short and to the point so that I didn't become daunted by an overload of information. A definite good starter book.

This book is both informative and interesting. A real "must have" for anyone like me - a first time chicken owner.

Excellent book!! Packed full of easy to understand facts and information. Especially suited for those who are in two minds about keeping chickens. It has made my mind up, I am looking forward to getting started.

I actually bought two of these books, one for me and one for a friend. We have both enjoyed reading the book, and have both now ordered Omlet Cubes with run extensions and all sorts... So much for a cheap read..!

Very easy to read and informative

Fantastic value, full of need-to-know information for beginners like us.

A really good book for beginners. An "idiots guide" if you like. Being a bit of an idiot and new to all the fun and games of chickens... this book is just what i needed. My 3 year old son loves the pictures too!
