Who Knew!

Love the narrator of the book! What a great voice. I know nothing about raising chickens prior to listening to this book. There is so much more to it then getting a coup and chickens. I know many people who raise chickens for the eggs. I certainly hope they have read this book to guide them through the process. Thanks for this step by step guide!
