This book is an exhaustive guide to the poultry industry in Alberta that emerged at the turn of the 20th century when farming shifted from simply meeting the needs of the farmer and family toward commercial production. The author, an expert at the forefront of Alberta's poultry industry, provides a comprehensive overview of the best practices for both commercial and small-scale poultry farming. Topics covered include housing, feed, breeding, laying strains, winter egg production, marketing, and disease control. The author's insights and knowledge provide solutions to many of the setbacks small-scale farmers faced as they sought to increase production in the early 20th century, as well as for farmers looking to establish successful commercial poultry operations.
