POULTRY

Preparation

You may have considered purchasing or adopting poultry to raise as pets, eggs or livestock.

A few important factors need to be taken into consideration before leaping enthusiastically into the unknown.

Check with your local authorities that the type of bird you intend to keep is actually allowed. Prewarn your neighbours. Chicks often only show their true colours when they mature. You need to have a plan for any roosters.
