review 1: Liked it except for thechickensection. It was quite long. We've had chickens for about a year now and I've read a lot of articles and blogs and backyard chicken websites- the author's practices/information seemed heavily influence by the fact that both sets of grandparents had commercial egg businesses. His advice for any blemished/imperfect/dirty egg is to feed it to the dogs. Also advises to scrub all eggs which actually shortens the shelf-life of eggs by removing a protective coating from the shell.
review 2: 3.5 starsI have read many urban farming and self sufficiency books, so when I found this on the library shelves I wasn't expecting much. I was surprised that the author included a few practices (pioneer yeast and extending the gardening harvest to... more name some) that I had not read about previously. I enjoyed the color photographs the book included and the fact that the author included several books I could read to pursue certain topics more deeply. less
