Book excerpt: Excerpt from Popular Poultry-Keeping for Amateurs: A Practical and Complete Guide to Breeding and Keeping Poultry for Eggs or for the Table Poultry-keeping has advanced in this country, during the last twenty years, with leaps and bounds. The number of fowls has probably quite doubled, and at the same time more rational methods of management have been adopted. Superior breeds have been introduced, and both the laying powers and the table quali ties of the birds themselves have been improved. But much yet remains to be done. Many people, especially those living in the country, still keep on in the old ruts, breeding and managing without any system. Now, if successful and profitable poultry are wanted, they must have attention and proper management, the same as any other stock. Those. Who think that there is nothing more to be done than to put a few fowls in a shed, and to throw a. Little corn at them two or three times a day, in order to secure an abundant harvest of eggs, are sadly mistaken. Fowls can only be kept profitably by systematic management, and any one who has not time or is not prepared to go to the trouble to keep them properly, should not keep them at all.

There is absolutely no country in the world, except perhaps the Arctic regions, – where man has not reared ducks, chickens and other poultry for table purposes down the centuries. Apart from these being an easy source of eggs to eat for breakfast, lunch and dinner every day, you also knew that you would have a tough old rooster for dinner, when a large number of family members popped in unexpectedly, demanding sustenance. We are going to be concentrating on chicken farming, for domestic purposes in this book. You have this dream of raising chickens in your backyard. You are interested in a continuous supply of eggs, and the occasional chicken for your pot of a Sunday. Layers are those chickens, which are normally raised for egg production. The chickens which are going to go straight into the pot are called broilers. Since ancient times, human beings have been raising poultry for domestic purposes and also for marketing purposes. Poultry farming has been a part of rural life in the east down the centuries. All the kitchen waste was fed to the hens. These hens came under the 21st century poultry farming term – free ranging. That meant they were allowed to scratch about in the backyard, getting their fill of insects, worms, green vegetables, organic matter, and was it a wonder that they laid delicious, nutritious, and proteinaceous eggs? Every intelligent householder kept three or four hens depending on the size of his family, and he bought a cock from the market, when he needed chickens. Once a clutch of chickens was hatched, Cocky Locky went into the cook pot. One of the common mistakes made by new poultry farmers is buying a large number of birds, because they are not very clear about whether they want these words for home consumption or they want to trade in the eggs and poultry meat. Around 50 years ago, one of my father’s colleagues was facing this problem. He had this huge garden and backyard. He had heard about dad rearing poultry in that garden successfully. So he also wanted to experiment in this exciting new activity which would keep his family well supplied with eggs, and fresh meat. So the next time dad went visiting to his base on a tour, he asked dad the best way to raise birds without too much of a hassle. You are going to get these easy tips in the book.
