Product Description
GENETICS OF THE FOWL has been the indispensible companion of chicken breeders since it was first published in 1949. Chapters inlcude the genetics of plumage, egg production, body size, disease resistance, and much more. The readable style of the book is a refreshing change from modern tomes written for an audience of researchers. Long out of print, this book has been brought back by Norton Creek Press as part of its Norton Creek Classics line.
