Item description from seller

Hardback. First Edition. Slight foxing to end inside covers. Message to previous owner to inside cover. Price clipped to D/J. This fully illustrated handbook provides a wide-ranging and very detailed introduction to all aspects of poulty-keeping and the poultry industry. The beginner who is interested in keeping enought birds to make him self-sufficient is introduced to the methods that will produce the best results. And those who want to progress on to commercial production will find up-to-date technical information and advice on the various intensive methods. The reader is taken step by step through the subjects, from the first decisions that have to be made, on the number and type of birds, where to keep them and why - as a hobby, for showing or for future expansion into a commercial enterprise, to the running of a large-scalwe business. Housing and equipment, rearing, feeding and health and their associated problems are all covered in great depth, and there are valuable chapters on the egg and meat business, based on a first-hand knowledge of the industry. Those who are involved on a small scale, or on a commercial basis, whether keeping the standard breeds, or inrterested in the more unusual ones, will all find this book an invalauble aid to successful poultry-keeping. Illustrated with over 40 black and white photographs and line drawings. 216 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions etc.).…
