Review
Interpet Publishing has launched, Mini Encyclopedia of Chicken Breeds & Care, the sixth in its pet encyclopedia series. The 208-page book provides information on care as well as a guide to the range of breeds available. The guide is split into two sections, the first includes advice on housing, health care, feeding, breeding and showing, while the second looks in detail at the history and temperament of more than 90 breeds including light breeds, heavy breeds, true bantams and game birds. Interpet said 'The book provides valuable information for the increasing number of people interested in keeping poultry as pets, for their eggs, or for showing and breeding. It's amazing how many kinds of chickens there are now and how different species vary in look, size and temperament. Many hobbyists have gaps in their knowledge of chickens and their welfare so good quality accessible information is welcomed. Poultry keeping is booming and Mini Encyclopedia of Chicken Breeds & Care has all the components to be a top seller.' --Glee Wire
This combination of focused text and highly illustrated content results in a book that is unrivalled in terms of its depth of coverage of individual breeds. Featuring easily accessed advice and hundreds of photographs, the mini-encyclopedia packs a huge amount of information into a pleasingly chunky format. Crammed with facts and pictures, and all at a very affordable price, this mini-encyclopedia punches well above its weight in terms of value for money. --Pet Trade World
