Dreaming of fresh eggs from your own backyard-even in the city?

Keeping chickens in an urban space is possible, but it comes with unique challenges: limited yard space, local bylaws, close neighbours, and the need for quiet, efficient coop designs.

This practical, easy-to-follow guide covers everything you need to know, from why chickens are a perfect fit for city life to choosing the right breeds, sourcing healthy birds, feeding and watering, and protecting your flock from predators. You'll also learn how to recognize common illnesses, comply with local regulations, and keep your chickens comfortable and productive through cold winters.

Whether you're seeking fresh eggs, a deeper connection to your food, or a more sustainable way of life, this book gives you the tools and confidence to raise chickens successfully-right in the heart of the city.
