Hi there, can you give an honest review of this book "Guinea Fowl for Pleasure, Pest Control and Profit" by Anja Schenkel

Looks like it's very immature but wondering if the info is at all accurate or helpful?

Thanks in advance

BYC

I have not read it and wouldnt bother as it sounds crap and By the name 'Schenkel' its german so no good for ozzy guineas

Dont waste your money there is a million times more info on APF and its from ozzy breeders with way more knowledge & experience and its all FREE here ;)

I agree, foreign books are no good for australian birds and I find books so boring and many are just copy and paste from the internet these days :roll:
Weston is right the information on apf is way better and is all real from real breeders and you can ask question and get ripper answers in real time, spend the money on KFC and eat while reading apf :-D

I would not pay $1 for it I have read the spiel a while ago and sounded like a $$$ book with nothing to offer the reader and yes a German chook keeper would no very little about our guinea fowls here in aust so even if it was a giveaway I would say NO th_Noooo.gif

APF is free and its the world resource for poultry info with breeders that actually breed poultry thinkerg.gif

Let your mouse do the work :-D

Would be ok to light a wood fire in winter but not much else.

Paperback books are so out of date and boring why waste money on any bird book when you have apf forum that is 1,000,000 books rolled into 1 and yes this one does look very lame
