Synopsis
"The Poultry-Yard: A Practical View Of The Best Method Of Selecting, Rearing, And Breeding The Various Species Of Domestic Fowl" by Peter Boswell. This book is a comprehensive practical manual on cottage poultry keeping, combining historical and contemporary practices to guide readers in selecting, rearing, and breeding domestic fowl. It covers the design and management of poultry-yards and sheds, various breeds and varieties (including Dorking, Poland fowl, Spanish fowl, Bantam, game birds, ducks, geese, turkeys, pheasants, and swans), and their feeding, incubation, and egg-laying. The text emphasizes humane, profitable husbandry, with extensive sections on stock selection, nutrition, digestion, artificial hatching, nest management, disease prevention, and the maintenance of clean, well-ventilated housing. It integrates French agricultural insights with English practice, and discusses the economics of fattening and the treatment of common poultry ailments, vermin, and predation for the rural household. The aim is to provide practical, field-tested guidance for improving cottage poultry-keeping and poultry production.
