5.0 out of 5 stars What an imformative book, 26 Aug 2002
By James Smith (Nottingham, England) - See all my reviews
I'm 14 years old and i started keeping chickens at the age of 10. Recently i bought this book to guide me on my way to sucessfully breeding and incubating. The book tells you everything from advise on what incubator to buy to how to adjust the temperature and humidity in the incubator. Since getting the book i have hatched and reared many species of chickens ranging from Orpingtons through to Plymouth Rocks.
I sincerly hope you do aswell with incubating the eggs as i did. Good Luck!

2.0 out of 5 stars Incubation at Home, 2 Feb 2004
By Aj Brown "James" (London) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This book looks like it was written in a day. It offers only basic information and not a lot of that. There is much better incubation advice in other "general" poultry books and considering that this book is *only* about incubation I was still left wanting.

1.0 out of 5 stars Very disappointed, 26 Jun 2007
By P. C. Wood (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
As the first reviewer said, this book looks as though it was written in a day. It is so out of date that you would be forgiven for thinking that it had been written 1n the 1950s. An absoulute waste of money.
