Want to have ready access to fresh organic eggs without having to run to the supermarket?

Concerned about the inhumane way that chickens are raised in factory farms?

Looking for a fun hobby that gets you outdoors communing with nature?

Backyard chicken-keeping has grown in popularity in recent years for the reasons above.

Chickens provide a regular food source, make great pets and are a valuable composter for kitchen scraps.

Compared to other farm animals, they’re the easiest to raise and don’t require intensive input.

Plus, their esteemed produce, eggs, are not just a versatile cooking ingredient–they are shockingly full of nutrients.

It’s clear to see–chickens make a valuable addition to your home.

Even A-list celebrities like Jennifer Aniston and Martha Stewart are getting in on the action.

If you want to raise chickens at home, this guide will help you get started.

You’ll find practical chicken-raising pointers that will come in handy throughout your chicken-keeping journey–from choosing the right breed to preparing a brooder to check their eggs.

In Raising Chickens for Beginners, you will discover:

  • An in-depth introduction to raising your own flock of chickens in your backyard, even if you have zero farm experience
  • Which comes first–the chicken or the egg? The answer to this age-old question will help you start your flock faster and easier
  • How to keep your chickens safe and sheltered while also giving them room to roam
  • The chicken breed known for its prolific egg-laying abilities–enjoy 300 eggs or more every year!
  • How to properly care for baby chicks and ensure that they mature to full-grown chickens
  • The number one thing you need to do with a sick chicken before you do anything else
  • Eight health-boosting supplements to add to your flock’s main diet that will increase egg production and bolster immunity
  • The surprising way chickens keep themselves clean and parasite-free without any effort on your end

And much more.

Keeping chickens doesn’t need to be difficult and time-consuming. The hardest part is starting and setting everything up.

But once you have your flock and routine established, you won’t need to spend as much time and effort on them.

As long as you have the space, the interest, and a healthy appetite for eggs, anyone can raise chickens from home. Yes, even you.
