Review: MUST HAVE for chicken owners! - I am so thankful I found this book at the beginning of my chicken keeping days. In the age of social media you will quickly find all kinds of misinformation that will lead you straight to wasted money and even unhealthy chickens. Kathy has years of experience and education on chickens and is a straight shooter. The info in this book is invaluable and I have used it so many times over the past 5 years. You will find all the basics for preparing for chicks, day to day care, specific medical advice for sick/injured chickens, interesting chicken facts, and even how to garden with chickens! This has been a fun read but also a life saver for the few issues I've had, such as scaly leg mites. Do yourself a favor and BUY THE BOOK! I promise you will save yourself from the feeling of overwhelm if you try to follow "advice" from social media. PS- more fun and learning to be found if you follow The Chicken Chick for her FB lives!
Review: Love is not Enough - I have been "chicken keeper" for 7 years and I am enchanted by this guide. Kathy has far exceeded my expectations. I expected a guide with very basic information but am blown away by the depth and variety of topics covered. The writing flows and the pictures enhance your understanding. The overall book is beautiful. If you are "thinking" about raising chickens this guide will give you the knowledge that you need to make wise decisions and understand what you are getting into....love is not enough. The preparations are critical for a healthy and happy flock and flock keeper. Go in knowing what to expect and you will enjoy the experience tenfold. If you are an experienced keeper don't turn you "nose up". This guide will enhance you overall knowledge. Kathy has done her homework well and shares with us her hundreds of hours of research and practical experience. I apologize to Kathy for not expecting this treasure trove of practical, insightful, and well researched information. The explanations are short and pack a powerful punch and the guide is beautifully formatted and fun to explore. In the chicken industry we are often kept in the dark about the care and keeping of industry birds. Know where your eggs come from and even if you choose not to raise birds, support those who do and know that your eggs come from happy and healthy hens. I very highly recommend this guide and thank the author and all of you who help make life for chickens the way it should be....happy, healthy and safe ! This will become my "go to" guide and am thrilled to have it on my chicken shelf. If you try this guide you will not be disappointed.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I Love This Book
*by K***S on December 28, 2017*

I decided to start keeping chickens about two years ago. I love research (nerd) so I scoured the internet for information. I finally hit upon the Chicken Chick site and this is who clicked for me. She has a definite emphasis on keeping her birds safe which is very appealing to me as an animal lover, but also expresses her philosophy about balancing free ranging with quality of life which helped me to be able to let go of some anxiety about free ranging. She gives detailed specifics about coops and safety so my coop was built and secure before I got my first chicks. TCC's book is also an invaluable guide to chicken health. She explains in detail about feeding, treating illnesses and injuries, best practices in cleanliness and cross contamination. Her advice on treating ill chicks saved the life of two of my baby Lavender Orpingtons. They are grown and healthy birds now. I feel confident taking her advice where a lot of sites on the internet seem pretty casual if not flat out cavalier about treating chickens. This book is not about chicken farming and meat birds. It's about keeping birds safely and happily in your backyard in the city (or wherever you live) for eggs and pleasure. TCC is my go-to source whenever I have a question or problem with my chickens. Feeling confident that you can handle a problem when it arises, and it will, adds to the joy of keeping these very interesting creatures in your backyard. My chickens have brought me a lot of pleasure and laughter. Kathy Shea Mormino has written a visually interesting and helpful book, plus she's funny. Can't recommend highly enough if chickens are your thing.
