Halve the feed bill, stop making callouts you do not need, and stop losing birds you could have saved. Most keepers make it back on the first sack they do not buy.
Who am I
I am Angus Douglas. Thirty years a livestock vet before I came back to the hill, and five generations of us on this ground before that.
The nearest vet who will see a hen is ninety minutes away. So they phoned me instead, at all hours, for thirty years. These are the answers I gave.

The one you will use at seven in the morning in your dressing gown with a torch, and the two you will read on a wet afternoon. Written by a man who spent thirty years driving out to birds that did not need him.

Pay once · Yours forever
Readers
We started using Angus's Infinite Feed method this spring because feed costs just kept climbing. I honestly didn't think it would make much difference, but within a few weeks we were already buying noticeably less feed. Between that and the health guide, the whole collection paid for itself much faster than I expected.
I bought the books because I was tired of searching the internet every time one of my hens looked unwell. What I liked most is that Angus explains everything in plain English. I don't panic anymore because I know exactly what to check first, and my flock is doing better because of it.
The feed chapters did what he says ... my bill is well down. The sick bird book I have only needed twice, and the second time I still ended up calling the vet. It told me to, mind.
The same hen, before and after I knew what to look for.
Most people miss it for two days. By then it is not one bird, it is the flock. The ten minute check is on page nine.
The arithmetic
One flock of forty, over a year, at what most people pay for a bag and what most vets charge to come out.
Four hens saves a good deal less than forty. A bare yard and no time saves less again. The sums are in The Profitable Hen Farm so you can run your own numbers instead of taking mine.
Questions
It depends on the size of your flock and how much of the ground you use. The line by line is in the arithmetic further up, and the sums are in The Profitable Hen Farm so you can run your own numbers.
Three books. Read them on a phone, a tablet, a computer, or print them. No app, no login, no course platform, nothing that can stop working.
Straight away. The download appears the moment you have paid, and it goes to your email as well in case you close the page.
Same book whether you have four or four hundred ... a sick hen is a sick hen. The feed book scales down honestly and will tell you plainly if four birds will never pay for themselves.
The sick bird work is not basic, it is fast, which is different. The feed book is where a bigger flock gets its money back, because you are buying the most bags.
The bird does not know where she is. Anatomy, symptoms and what to do in the first ten minutes are the same everywhere. Weather and rules are not, so where local regulation matters I tell you that it exists and how to check it.
No, and it says so repeatedly. It is what to do in the ten minutes before you decide whether you need one, and it is honest about the point where the answer is yes, today.
No. They are made to be read on a screen, and The Sick Bird is laid out for a phone held in one hand. Print them if you would rather have paper in the coop, but nothing depends on it.
No. They are one set at one price and it is cheaper than any two of them would be separately.
