This is more in-depth and more expensive than Gail Damerow's book, and you need to be able to handle information presented in a quite technical way. It's also more expensive than 'The Chicken Health Handbook', though you get more for your money. This edition has been updated to include new environmentally and welfare friendly methods of keeping chickens, and there is a lot more information than Damerow, for example on hygiene and usage of vaccines. There is also up-to-date information on best practice for nutrition, lighting, egg collection and housing, and there is useful information on legislation for people selling poultry products.
