Editorial Reviews
Product Description
Pioneering poultry scientist G. F. Heuser of Cornell University wrote Feeding Poultry at just the right time: after poultry nutrition was thoroughly understood, but before small farm flocks were replaced by factory farms. It may not be the newest book available, but it's the only one with a whole chapter devoted to free range and green feed, that's focused on traditional poultrykeeping, and written for the intelligent layman rather than graduate students. Feeding Poultry is the ideal reference for small farmers and serious hobbyists like you, covering chickens, turkeys, ducks, geese, gamebirds, and pigeons.
As you read this book, you will see opportunities open up before you. You'll learn the uses and quality standards of different ingredients, the value of free range and green feed, how poultry rations are formulated, how to use natural sources for all nutrients, the many different feeding strategies, and much more.
Other books on poultry nutrition cost twice as much for far less material. Even if you never mix your own ration, your superior understanding will give you more options, make you a better shopper, save you money, and allow you to keep healthier, more productive poultry.
