I've even drawn up a plan for the coop and a large run in our back yard. We now have to get a permit from the town we live in, and written permission from each neighbor within 500 feet! UGH - I'm so afraid it's going to NOT happen for me... and I SO want to have chickens! I'm sure my family will think I'm crazy - there will be a blog post on my site soon which will be very similar to yours I am sure!Emily Colehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04451102661519375820noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8546718730043897500.post-59674463270205800902008-02-02T19:32:00.000-08:002008-02-02T19:32:00.000-08:00Most cities it is legal to keep chickens.

You would want to check with the local municipal codes first before getting started. www.municode.com or www.amlegal.com both have access to municipal codes for larger cities for free. You could also google your city's municipal codes or call the local health department. It is also a good idea to bring your neighbors some of the eggs every once in a while!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10923385601755527594noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8546718730043897500.post-33679545421673851642008-02-01T19:37:00.000-08:002008-02-01T19:37:00.000-08:00I have always wanted to do this.
