    About this ebook

    This book teaches how a prospective farmer can set up and manage either a small scale (or back yard) poultry farm or a big-time (or Commercial) poultry business with success - without any fear of loss. It clearly teaches in a simple way how to plug all holes through which losses are encountered in poultry farming. Even losses which farmers call ''mystery losses'' have been handled and solutions provided for all loop-holes. You will see how one the the mystery losses coming from snakes stealing into brooder pens at night to swallow young chicks has been handled.
    An interesting aspect is that of POULTRY ENGINEERING. Here the book teaches how to determine the best place to site or locate your intended poultry house based on land topography and other factors. It also teaches how to know the size of house to build, and what structural provisions should be made in its construction. It goes ahead to teach the farmer how to construct the various POULTRY EQUIPMENT needed, in case the farmer does not want to buy ready-made ones.
    The author, who is also a DOCTOR OF VETERINARY MEDICINE teaches the farmer how to prevent his flock from contracting poultry diseases and how someone can handle fowls that are affected by any of these diseases, including the very difficult ones like AVIAN INFLUENZA (Bird Flu) and avoid death from the disease, when handled early enough.
    Another interesting discovery in the book is the problem of Cannibalism in which fowls pick on the vent of an unfortunate fowl and pull out the intestines from there thus killing it. Many deaths can occur from this. Hitherto, farmers try to solve this problem through de-beaking of the birds.
    Now research has discovered that this problem can be easily and effectively solved through what is known as the'' OWL-LOOK Treatment''. In this, the side effects associated with De-beaking solution are completely avoided. You need to read this section to learn about this discovery.
    The book also has a section on TURKEY HUSBANDRY for the benefit of those who want to know how to rear turkeys successfully.
    At the end of the book, the farmer is taught how to keep vital records such as Income and
    expenditure Records, Health Records, Daily Balance Sheet etc. Samples of all these records are displayed in the book for the farmer to copy from.
    STUDENTS of Animal Science , Animal Husbandry, and Veterinary Medicine will find the book a great treasure to cherish all through their professional life.
