Hamburghs in a Nutshell: Chicken Breeds Book 57 (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781542886321)

This special re-print edition of J.N. William's book "Hamburghs In a Nutshell" contains a treasure trove of information on the legendary Hamburg chicken breed. Written in 1910 by one of the great masters of this breed, the rarity of original copies has brought forth the demand for this much needed reprint of this important historic work on Hamburg Chickens. Included in this short text are the fine details on the keeping and breeding of these birds for pleasure, egg production purposes or for exhibition. Chapters include How To Start in the Hamburg Fancy, Shape and Comb Conformation, Lobe, Hackles and Tails, Black Hamburgs, Pencilled Cockerals, Pencilled Pullets, Spangled Pullets and Hens, Preparing For Exhibition and more. One of the only books of its kind. Note: This edition is a perfect facsimile of the original edition and is not set in a modern typeface. As a result, some type characters and images might suffer from slight imperfections or minor shadows in the page background.
