Rats!!!
I was told that my city allowed residential backyard chickens. But when I called the city they said no, they've never allowed poultry in residential areas. <sigh> I am soooooooooooo bummed out. Of course you can't have a "big" operation of 25 chickens, but maybe they'd allow 4-5 hens? Nope. I went to a chicken workshop and the presenter said that sometimes a city clerk doesn't know so to ask others such as the county extension office. Called them and they said no. Called the feed store where I had been told that my city allowed chickens a couple years ago. They were mistaken. The city next door to me allows chickens but not mine.
I have a cousin who has chickens in her basement and her city doesn't allow poultry within city limits. That's probably not going to work for me.
It was suggested that I go to a council meeting and ask that the ordinance be changed. Waaaaaaaaa. I may do that but I doubt I can change anything for this season. <sigh> I really wanted some chickens. The eggs would be nice but I wanted them more as pets.
Thanks for listening.
Linda (with no chickens) :-(
