Yes, here it is. In order to save you time (and me breath), I have attempted to answer the most common questions I get from intending poultry neophytes.
These answers are based on over 15 years experience keeping chooks and 8 years selling them (rather than in depth research into the topic). If I’m wrong on something (and you know better) please feel free to raise it with me, but expect a discussion to ensue! Also, there may be a trick question or two in here, be aware.
Please note: the categories were selected while I was hunched over the laptop, late at night, beer in hand, and may be a little counterintuitive.
