About This Book

A practical manual for beginners and small-scale producers that explains how to raise poultry profitably. It outlines the main breed classes and their traits, then details housing, brooding and incubation, feeding, flock management, seasonal production, and basic disease prevention. The text emphasizes simple economics and marketing, efficient use of table scraps and limited yard space, and the virtue of starting moderately. Advice is framed to help both town lot keepers and farmers increase egg and meat output while controlling costs and avoiding common early mistakes.
