Great book with lots of details but a tad expensive.
This is a great book for the smallholder, Homesteader, or even small farm the plans are scalable, both up and down. 1Plan is for 1000 hens if you don't have 1000 and only have 500 Half all the dimensions 250 birds half them yet again. Getting some of the tools or items used can be expensive if there American but you can normally find something local that will do the job. Lots of information and insight as to why and how things are the way they are.

More than we bargained for…
Very detailed and in depth drawings, measurements and animal mannerisms that made the designs what they are. You can see why Polyface is so successful as the big picture is in the details. Can’t wait to put this knowledgeable book into practice on our own homestead.

Not localised, be aware, its for americans only, NOT metric system
The content of the book is 10/10, however i returned it, because of stupid American (inch, feet, gallon, etc) system. it really pissed me off. Please burn, purge everything that has this imperial system, it must be erased from existence and forgotten.
