The tips on building a coop were gold - made me rethink my whole setup to make sure my girls were safe and sound. And the advice on dealing with sick chickens? Lifesaver. I never realized how much I didn't know until this audiobook laid it all out. It's like having a neighbor who's been through it all, sharing the dos and don'ts over a backyard fence chat. Now, I feel a bit more equipped to handle the curveballs of chicken parenting.
