Book Description Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. More than 128 birds strut their stuff across the pages of this definitive primer for intrepid poultry farmers and feather fanciers alike. From the Manx Rumpy to the Redcap and the Ancona duck to his Aylesbury cousin, each breed is profiled with a brief history, detailed descriptions of identifying characteristics, and colourful photography. Comprehensive and fun, Storey's Illustrated Guide to Poultry Breeds celebrates the personalities and charming good looks of North America's quirkiest barnyard birds and waterfowl. AUTHOR: Carol Ekarius has been a full time livestock farmer for nearly a decade and has been involved with the sustainable agriculture movement for many years. She is the author of How to Build Animal Housing and Small-Scale Livestock Farming. Carol and her husband live in Hartsel, Colorado, with their many critters. Farmers and fanciers keep an astonishing variety of poultry breeds and these birds provide meat and eggs to nourish us and feathers to keep us warm. Their quirky personalities and charming good looks make them farnyard favourites. This work presents, breed by breed, more than 120 farnyard fowl - from chickens and turkeys to emus and pheasants. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability. Seller Inventory # 9781580176675
