seraphine Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 This arrived yesterday http://www.amazon.co.uk/Keeping-Chickens-Essential-Enjoying-Getting/dp/0715325671/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1240477673&sr=8-1 and I've found it really helpful so far. Obviously there's nowhere near as much advice as I've already found on here, but excellent to refer to, nice pics and a good anatomy section. I know there's a few of us nebies about so thought I'd post in case anyone's thinking of buying a book (or two!). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sgregson Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 Thanks for the tip - will have to get myself one ordered! Sal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hen Watch Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 This one is good too, written by the Practical Poultry Magazine chap. I've got this and it's very useful. http://www.amazon.co.uk/Choosing-Keeping-Chickens-Chris-Graham/dp/0600614387/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1240501973&sr=1-1 But for complete novice, I don't think you can beat Omlet's very own book, even if you don't have an eglu, as it covers the real basics. http://www.omlet.co.uk/shop/shop.php?cat=Books&sub=Chicken&product_id=97&sort=popularity&start=0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seraphine Posted April 23, 2009 Author Share Posted April 23, 2009 I was going to go for the Amazon one but it's OOS. And the reviews for the one sold here on Omlet put me off a bit! No doubt I shall be buying more chook-books though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
