Description
Originally published in the early 1930s. The book contains much advice on every aspect of rearing pigeons for table birds. The illustrated contents include: Selection of Birds - Housing - Feeding - The Moult - Vermin - Disease - Breeding the Best - Determination of Sex - Marketing - Starting a Flock - Recipes for Cooking Squabs - etc. Many of the earliest farming or smallholding books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. Home Farm Books are republishing many of these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
