About this ebook

 You may not know it, but you are about to discover the secrets of having farm-fresh eggs from your own back yard. Every day!

Imagine yourself holding in your hands fresh warm newly laid eggs. Now imagine those eggs being turned into a sunny omelet, a dark rich chocolate cake, or making homemade pasta. You can already taste the difference!

Fact. Eggs produced by happy hens taste so much better than store-bought eggs. And you have control over what these hens eat, and so what goes into those eggs. If you prefer to go completely organic then you can. The choice is yours, and this is another area of your life and well-being that you now have complete control over.

Who wants to eat a bland store-bought egg laid by a stressed-out chicken? We have enough stress in our hurried lives as it is.

Going out, feeding the hens and collecting the eggs can be a very relaxing activity, helping you unwind from a day's work. And kids just love these activities too! This is also a priceless part of a child's education, and will give them the knowledge and a skill-set so few others have these days.

In this book by Jim Kilpatrick, you will discover:

  • The best breeds to keep
  • The best ways to start your flock
  • How to construct the coop
  • What to feed them and how often
  • Tips on health and safety - for you and the hens!
  • Much more

In short, everything you need to get going with a fun and rewarding endeavor.

So, to taste the difference, scroll up and click the Buy Now button. Buy this book, but most importantly, put into practice what you learn. You'll thank yourself.

About the author

 Jim Kilpatrick is a structural engineer, "backyard farmer" and breeder of prize roses.

After completing a degree in structural engineering at the University of Pennsylvania, Jim entered the world of consulting. Always looking for a way to add more quality to life; he has started raising his own chickens. "Only after you've tasted the difference between store-bought eggs and home-produced ones, will you appreciate the difference in quality. There's just no comparison really." he says.

Jim also enjoys growing his family's own herbs and vegetables. He is a member of his local garden club and often gives talks and workshops on self-sufficiency. Recently he has started a local action group on the subject of bringing quality into the home in various ways. He is passionate about getting families involved in daily beneficial activities, and freely shares his knowledge with those interested in regaining the lost arts of producing quality home-grown food.

He believes in doing what you can to improve your life, but to also take things easy!

Jim lives in California with his wife, two teenagers, a flock of chickens and a very lazy Dachshund.
