I'm just finishing the "Survival Farming" chapter on my preparedness book, which has a lot of info on raising chickens (as well as rabbits, goats,etc). When I finish that chapter I'll produce it for you to use as reference. It covers every aspect of chickens, from hatching to butchering and serving up for dinner.

The farming chapter alone was such a big project it felt like its own book.

I am amazed at how much data is out there on the subject. And there are several good feed stores at which people are more than willing to talk about what they know.

I’m going on the assumption that all five chicks are female, so we’ll have five layers. And we’ll go from there...
