Introduction
The practice of keeping small flocks in the backyards is gaining ground in many cities today. Under no condition should every family that can play host to chickens, in their backyard disregard the exercise. Although the exercise may not be a welcome development in some cities due to the erroneous beliefs about the health implication, but it offers a wide range of benefits. Some health workers and animal welfare agents, all of whom are under the notion that backyard chicken farming is both frightening and dangerous are not helping the matter either, but the truth remains that backyard chicken is right for you and your family if you can practice it.
