First-time chicken farmers, Bronwyn and Christina take you on a journey through the fear, fun and foibles of one of humanity's most important companions - the chicken.

We dare you not to cry at the surprise ending.
Review Quotes
"Roost is nothing less than a handbook for successful chicken keeping nested within Ms. Mitchell-Strong's entertaining and revealing personal narrative. Readers with chickens will immediately recognize themselves in its pages, nodding their heads knowingly as she experiences both the heartbreak and joy that are the chicken keeper's rights of passage."
-- Robert Litt, author of A Chicken in Every Yard: The Urban Farm Store's Guide to Chicken Keeping
