Three beginner backyard flock guides in one: raise chicks to first eggs, raise ducklings to duck eggs, and care for your hens through every season.

The Seedlark Backyard Flock series is organized by time, not topic. Each book tells you what to do this week or this season, with checklists, charts and fill-in worksheets. This collection includes all three complete books:

  • Book 1: The First Flock Timeline. An eight-week prep countdown, then week-by-week brooder heat, feed, the move outdoors and the run-up to the first egg.
  • Book 2: The Backyard Duck Timeline. Housing, water and fencing for ducks, the duckling brooder weeks, duck eggs, health, and ducks in the garden.
  • Book 3: The Backyard Chicken Year. Day length and laying, winter lighting, frostbite and frozen water, broody hens, heat waves, the molt, older hens and a month-by-month calendar.

Every number is drawn from university extension, USDA and CDC guidance, with sources listed in each book. Each book keeps its own worksheets, glossary and sources.

Written with AI assistance and checked against the sources listed in the book.
