'Keeping pet chickens' by Johannes Paul and William Windham

Chickens are becoming a popular option for many people as productive and attractive pets.

Written in a direct easy-to-follow style, free of jargon, this book concentrates on the key facts and essential 'must know' advice necessary for keeping chickens as pets.

A consistent best-seller since it was first published, it is ideal for the beginner chicken-keeper who wants a few friendly hens in their back garden, rather than smallholders or those setting up a large flock.
