"I absolutely love this magazine! I thought I had great knowledge of chickens, the breeds, different eggs, etc., boy was I wrong! So full of information that I DID NOT know. Thank you for putting this together and making it such a valuable resource to us "mini farmers" and homesteaders alike."

    Lots of great info.
    Note, chickens did not evolve from dinosaurs.
    That is not possible
    Chickens were created as chickens!
    What came first? The chicken and then the chicken laid the first egg.

    The great thing about this book, Chickens – A Backwoods Home Guide, is that the information is practical homesteader articles, and each article is 3 or 4 half pages and some nice photos. So you can read it quickly, make some decisions and then apply it to crafting your own chicken plan with the knowledge you gained. It nicely covers everything you would need to know about chickens and is a quick reference on any of the topics about them.
