    Hi,

    Can anyone recommend a good book about building your own chicken coop and raising chickens (needs, illness, diet, etc.). Thinking about this as my summer project.

    Thanks!

    Thinking 4-5 chickens? Basically me and my flatmate only live in the yard (1000 sq. metres) but I eat up to 4 eggs every day.
