Download or read book The Blue Andalusian written by Silver Dun and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12-24 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Blue Andalusian: Its Breeding, Management, and Exhibition I hardly think that any apology is necessary for the introduction of another monograph upon that handsome variety of domestic poultry the Blue Andalusian, for although the breed is now one of our old-established ones, the strict demands of the fancier upon the delicate ground colour and lacing have become so very much more pronounced in recent years, and so great an improvement is required upon what satisfied the most critical judges of even a dozen years ago, that the necessity for some work upon the subject, written up as near as may be to the requirements of the times, will, I trust, justify the publication of these pages. Being fully aware that the value of a work of this kind would be considerably enhanced as a book of reference if it contained more than the simple experience of one individual, I have been only too pleased to avail myself of the kind assistance of several of the principal breeders of the variety, and must take this opportunity of thanking them for the information that they have so ungrudgingly afforded me.

Download or read book Chicken Boy written by Arthur Parkinson and published by Random House. This book was released on 2023-04-06 with total page 191 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A captivating, beautifully illustrated memoir of a life in nature, and a testament to the mutual rewards and delights of keeping chickens, by the Sunday Times bestselling author of The Flower Yard 'I am a toddler the first time I meet a chicken, and we are equal in size and height. The hen has tiny eyelashes, a strawberry-jam face and a voice of purring clucks. I sense a happy spirit of inquisitiveness and smile in fascination. From that moment on, I will always love the company of chickens. I have found my tribe' Most of us want a dog, or a cat, or a pony when we are young - for Arthur Parkinson, it was always hens. Growing up in an ex-mining town in Nottinghamshire, the other kids in the playground called him 'Chicken Boy'. But the quiet fulfilment of keeping hens became his sanctuary, a tonic for mental and physical health, a connection with his family and the natural world. From the local allotments and his nan's back garden, to Chatsworth and an unlikely friendship with the late Duchess of Devonshire, a famous hen-keeper, Chicken Boy tells the story of the love and satisfaction to be found in caring for living things. Illustrated with Arthur's own characterful watercolours and photographs of his 'girls', and laden with practical hen-keeping tips, gardening advice and introductions to common, rare and pure breeds, Chicken Boy is a one-of-a-kind memoir of a life in nature.
Download or read book Rare British Breeds written by Sophie McCallum and published by White Owl. This book was released on 2020-03-30 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A look at rare British livestock breeds, from their history and characteristics to their conservation status and the efforts to help them survive. Rare British Breeds is a book inspired by the Rare Breed Survival Trust Watchlist, which is published annually, listing the species of sheep, cattle, horses, pigs, goats and poultry (chickens, turkeys, ducks and geese) that are endangered in the United Kingdom. This information is gathered from breed societies and lists the number of breeding females alive, along with their conservation status. Each species, regardless of their origin, is unique to the UK, either through cross breeding or by evolution. There are good reasons for wanting to keep these breeds alive. It’s not just the genetic makeup of these creatures which means many are able to survive and thrive in very formidable conditions—a prerequisite for enduring possible future environmental disasters. Once gone, these genes will never be able to be replaced. They have taken thousands of years to develop. The book looks at the history of every breed, with their evolutionary roots, development over time, exportation, cross breeding, and changing relationship to mankind as farming techniques react to societal shifts. Their particular physical characteristics such as meat, wool, milk, eggs, or ability to pull great weights are discussed, as well as their conservation status and the national and international efforts being made to ensure their survival.
