  This practical manual is aimed at the amateur gamekeeper and the DIY shooting syndicate, and shows how to rear and release gamebirds economically and effectively. All the aspects are covered: hatching and buying in chicks, shelter, feeding, daily care, predators and diseases and the mature bird. There is also advice for the syndicate on negotiating with landowners, and choosing a shoot, and a special section covers all the elements of organising a successful shooting day.
