So, you’d like to raise your own chickens? Be sure you’re ready to commit! Here’s the first application E-book in our six-part beginner’s guide to raising chickens. Let’s “start from scratch,” so to speak.

WHY SHOULD YOU RAISE CHICKENS?

There’s a lot to like about raising chickens in your backyard. The eggs are a real temptation—tastier and fresher than any store-bought eggs, and better for baking, too. The shells, along with the chicken poop, can be tossed right into the compost pile. Much of the day, the birds entertain themselves, picking at grass, worms, beetles, and all of the good things that go into making those yummy farm eggs. Plus, with their keen eye for insect pests, chickens make for great gardening companions.

Remember, though: Nothing good comes easy!
