Review of Upland Game Birds by Leland Hayes,
By Shawn Hogan (Southern Oregon) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Upland Game Birds: Their Care and Breeding (Paperback)
I found Dr. Hayes book to be very informative regarding the raising and care of many different species of game birds. I appreciated the information on the difficulties associated with particular breeds, as a guide to selecting challenging or easy breeds to raise. The medication guide alone is worth the price of the book, comparing dosage amounts and alternative medications for most common ailments. This is the first book I have found with useful information for the small-scale breeder, as opposed to the large commercial game bird operator.

Leland Hayes Upland Game birds, Their Breeding & Care,
By G.L.Heywood (Easley South Carolina) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Upland Game Birds: Their Care and Breeding (Paperback)
This book is one of the most detailed books in the field and it is a must for every owner of gamebirds. Dr.Hayes and his wife have done much researchh and breeding of these birds. He does not try to give information as to what you should do if he hasn't breed or raised or treated birds of any species. The breeder can learn alot and put it to good use in his or her aviary. Thus saving a lot of expense and time with sick birds. Take care of the birds as described will make you a very smart breeder. Besure and purchase this and other books by Dr. Hayes. Also he provides a great service for online game bird questions on his FREE Ezine. Contact him at Leland@LelandHayes.com Thank you G L. Heywood email frizzlebird@yahoo.com

Upland Game Birds: Their Breeding and Care,
By A Customer
This review is from: Upland Game Birds: Their Care and Breeding (Paperback)
I found this book very informative and interesting to read. The descriptions, photos and plates are very helpful in identifying the differences between the many species of quail, pheasants, partridges and other gamebirds. You can tell by the author's comments that he has personal experience with these birds and is not just rephrasing something he read (like in so many other books). The medication guide and disease information is quite helpful and its easy to locate the necessary information quickly. This is a book I would recommend to anyone raising or thinking about raising gamebirds.
