Basic Guide for the Backyard Chicken Flock


Good paper on raising Florida chickens. Most resources in print or online are written by folks who need to worry about really cold weather. This one is through UF Department of Animal Science:
Basic Guide for the Backyard Chicken Flock
AN239, a 4-page illustrated fact sheet by Derek L. Barber, provides basic information for small-farm owners about brooding, housing, feed and water, nesting, breeds of chickens, and hatcheries, for starting a backyard flock. Published by the UF Department of Animal Science, April 2010.
