I stumbled across a place that has some old poultry books online (and other old books on agriculture):

http://chla.library.cornell.edu/

Quote:
The Core Historical Literature of Agriculture (CHLA) is a core electronic collection of agricultural texts published between the early nineteenth century and the middle to late twentieth century. Full-text materials cover agricultural economics, agricultural engineering, animal science, crops and their protection, food science,forestry, human nutrition, rural sociology, and soil science. Scholars have selected the titles in this collection for their historical importance.


All pre about 1950, so have to be taken in context (eg meat products recommended for poultry feeds now illegal in the UK etc), but I still find old books fascinating reading.

Or maybe thats just me! Embarassed Laughing
