This book contains a comprehensive handbook for the designing and construction of bird aviaries. It was written with the intention of making this text of equal value to the wealthy and ambitious bird-keeper and those with a more modest budget and designs.

Chapters contained herein include: 'Ventilation', 'Double-decker Arrangement', 'Provision for Show Cages', 'Sectional Structures', 'Good Ventilation Essential', 'Steady Temperature', 'Building Materials', 'Nest Boxes', 'Variety in Design', 'Hens Know Their Job', 'Cardboard Nest Boxes', and 'Seed hoppers'. We are proud to republish this antique text with a new introduction to ornithology.
