List of Hobbies

Raising Chickens as a hobby can be extremely fulfilling and will likely earn you a few dollars (or at least breakfasts) in the process.

A book called simply ‘Chickens’ is a great introductory guide to raising a healthy flock of happy chickens. From hens to roosters, from layers to broilers, Weaver covers the essentials in a straight forward style. You won’t need to worry about your chickens flying the coop with this resource in hand. –John Ivanko, co-author of Rural Renaissance: Renewing the Quest for the Good Life

Sue clearly covers the practical side of small-flock chicken farming-from selecting the right chickens to keeping them happy and healthy, and she delivers the goods with her trademark wit.
