Reference

Some of the factual names and dates found on the 'Chicken' breed page have be sourced from Mr David Scriveners poultry guides. Both 'Popular Poultry Breeds' and 'Rare Poultry Breeds' are valuable poultry breed guides that every poultry enthusiast should have in their bookcase. They contain detailed histories of over 200 chicken breeds of various origins and have large collections of photos and prints to create an almost comprehensive resource.
Popular Poultry Breeds and Rare Poultry Breeds can be sourced directly from the publisher at www.crowoodpress.com or via www.amazon.co.uk
