Publisher Description:
This early work on poultry husbandry is a fascinating read for any poultry enthusiast, but also contains much information that is still useful and practical today. It will prove of much interest to the amateur poultry keeper as well as those in the field of agriculture. 142 Illustrations. Contents Include: Introduction By Dr. R. Coles; Foreword; The Poultry Farm; Origin and Breeds of Fowls; The Structure and the Functions of the Fowl; The Egg; Breeding; Incubation; Chick Sexing; Brooding and Rearing; Nutrition; Housing and Systems; Management and Culling; Table Poultry Production; Hygiene and Diseases; Bibliography; and Index. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
