Why raise your own meat?

Because you know you will make the right choices. The chicken you eat will have been raised the way you want it to be raised. Exactly. You choose its feed, you choose its home, you choose how it is treated. You keep them healthy and content.

Because you love food. The texture will be exquisite. The taste will be unique to you and your land.

Because you'll also develop a deeper connection with your humanity as a meat-eater. You will directly connect with your meals. You will earn your food. You will be a real provider.

Because you will truly make your dinner from scratch.

The real question you need to ask if you have the land and resources is: why not?

Everything in this book comes from several years of experience working with hundreds upon hundreds of chickens first hand. Processes and plans are original and have been developed and refined as the author learned from successes and failures.

Here's a glimpse at what is covered in this comprehensive guide:
- Thorough, step-by-step guidance to planning, preparing, raising, and processing chickens

- Criteria for raising meat chickens
