Instead of reading, I listened to this book on audible. It’s a quick listen at just over an hour, yet it is packed with basic info for the beginner. I’ll definitely be referring back to it. It also comes with a set of diy coop plans to download.

Clear and concise

If you're at all interested in raising chickens, this is a must-have. It would have helped tremendously a decade ago when I helped a friend with his hobby farm. Save yourself some woe!

Plus, the narration of Angel Clark is a huge bonus!

Insightful!
