There's a revolution happening in America, and it's taking place in urban and suburban backyards all across our country!
More and more of us desire simplicity in our busy schedules, want to get back to basics, and yearn for a more natural, rustic way of life. This revolution is manifesting itself in the form of cute coops, transportable tractors, and awesome arks: and they all contain chickens.

Written by Kristina Mercedes Urquhart, The Suburban Chicken shares the author's knowledge on general chicken husbandry, profiles of 20 suitable breeds for suburban living, how to provide your birds with optimal accommodations, and the healthcare needs of chickens, among other important topics about which prospective chicken owners should be familiar.
