    Pretty much all in one place

    Here is a book I wish we had had when we started raising chicks. Although it doesn't contain any new information, Mr. Plamandon has spent years researching the tried and true. The most practical, profit oriented methods are ditailed. The presentation may slant a bit more to raising pullets for egg production than toward meat birds.
