Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Making a Poultry House
A windbreak of some kind on the cold side of the building is a decided advantage -a wall, an evergreen hedge, a grove, or other buildings, will protect the poultry house, and, perhaps, also a portion of the runs, with benefit to the poultry. In that the family flock may range in size from half a dozen to fifty or seventy five fowls, the size of the building, and even its style, must vary to suit one's needs. A small coop, almost square, may house your flock of eight or ten, but the larger flock requires a house longer and higher, with more ample ventilation.
