A Guide to Disease Control for the Free Range Egg Farmer

Preface

Free range egg production means different things to different people.  This book aims to provide practical guidance on disease control for egg producers running upwards of 200 birds with access to outside range for much of the day, but being fed a commercial layer ration.

Producers of barn eggs, veterinarians in general practice (who can expect increased demands for service from a more diversified egg production industry), and advisors in the feed and animal health industries will also find the book a useful reference.
