"No Chickens on the Deck!" (Adventures in Hobby Henkeeping)

by Stephen Garriga, Stephen Garriga (Photographer), Debra Anderson (Editor)

Overview

Thinking about keeping a few chickens and want some idea of what you are getting yourself into?

When I first thought about it, there were dozens, maybe hundreds, of chicken keeping books out there, but the ones I read were mainly "do this, then this" type instructional manuals or far to involved for a novice. None of them really gave me a feel for what was involved.

This is an introductory guide to the ups and downs of hobby henkeeping that chronicles my first year as a chicken keeper. You'll almost certainly still need an instruction book, but hopefully my experiences will convince you that chickens should be part of your life, and this guide will help bridge the gap between thinking about it and doing it.

About the Author

Stephen Garriga has spent the better part of his life trying to convince computers to do what companies want them to do rather than what what they've asked them to. Born in the UK, he parleyed his software taming skills into varied assignments, initially in the South of England, but then Massachusetts, Canada, Virginia, Mexico, the French Caribbean, New Hampshire and Georgia.

He currently lives in the North Georgia Mountains with his fiance, two cats, several chickens and rather a lot of bees.
