Fresh Eggs Daily Summary

Fresh Eggs Daily: Raising Happy, Healthy Chickens...Naturally by Lisa Steele

More than ever, Americans care about the quality and safety of the food they eat. They're bringing back an American tradition: raising their own backyard chickens for eggs and companionship. And they care about the quality of life of their chickens.

Fresh Eggs Daily is an authoritative, accessible guide to coops, nesting boxes, runs, feed, and natural health care - with time-tested remedies from a fifth generation chicken keeper who has more than a decade of experience under her belt following her own simple and practical advice.

Lisa Steele promotes the benefits of keeping chickens happy and well-occupied, and in optimal health, free of chemicals and antibiotics. She emphasizes the therapeutic value of herbs, edible flowers and natural supplements to maintaining a healthy environment for your backyard flock. Her tips and advice will benefit the first-time chicken keeper and seasoned veteran alike.

This is one of those especially for now kinds of books, when food security is appearing on our to-do lists.

Fresh Eggs Daily Reviews

With so many chicken resources popping up all the time, it's hard to know who to listen to. Fresh Eggs Daily is a one-stop shop for anyone looking to learn more about the hobby of keeping a flock. Lisa does her homework, providing a solid foundation behind her advice; and as longtime chicken eggsperts ourselves, we can vouch for the accuracy of information she puts out there. -Jess Murray, Meyer Hatchery

I love this book. Period. It's light, it's fun, it's informative with information and recipes, and it is clearly written by someone who has an education in this field of knowledge. I can't wait to read it all over again and have it on my bookshelf rather than dashing to the internet to try and help my chickens. -Amy, The Fewell Homestead blog

Lisa Steele knows firsthand that keeping a flock clean, comfortable, and well fed is 90% of good preventive chicken medicine. Her common sense tips promote a fulfilling life for both the flock and the flock keeper. -Julie Gauthier, DVM, author of Chicken Health for Dummies

Lisa is passionate about promoting what, in England, we call 'the good life' - a life close to Nature and one where self-sufficiency is paramount. She is a one-woman dynamo and an inspiration. -Simon McEwan, content editor, Your Chickens and Country Smallholding magazines

It's only natural that blogger Lisa Steele would eventually write a book about raising chickens. Reading Fresh Eggs Daily is like going to the coop each morning to collect eggs: You never know what you're going to find, but there is always something good to pick up! -Roger Sipe, editor of Chickens and Urban Farm magazines

Proof of Lisa's know-how and knowledge of raising chickens naturally is evident in her blogs, where she covers everything from health care tips and homemade remedies to helpful advice about chicken coops, nesting boxes and runs; and now in Fresh Eggs Daily. We're proud to call Lisa a member of our online family and an asset to our community. -Traci Smith, associate editor, GRIT and CAPPER'S magazines

If you also love raising chickens, this book is for you...it's amazing. This book tells you all you need to know about coops, chicken runs, nesting boxes, breeding, feeding, and it's all done naturally. -Sunny Hostin's favorite summer picks, ABC-TV's The View

This is a great book to have if you have chickens. We have used it multiple times as a reference when we have questions about one of the ladies. -Joanna Taylor Stone
