He just doesn't even see what he has done, either. He tries to act all friendly. I'm biting my tongue every time. I turn my face away from him and walk the other direction. He hurt my feelings, didn't even give me a chance to change something that inconvenienced him, and then he acts like we are...

Nope. Not going to happen. Especially since I offered to change my coop, move stuff, try to soundproof, even put the roos in the garage. He waited TWO DAYS and then came over when I wasn't home and told my husband no. COWARD. He knows they are MY chickens. He wouldn't even make eye contact with...

I'm just going to make sure every little noise violation from his plot is reported. In the meantime, Abe now lives with a sweet granny person with 21 of his own hens, and Rudy is going to a 4-H house and they are going to take one of my hens from chicken scratch and let me have eggs now and...

These chickens are primarily made for fighting and for people who sell to fight organizers.

My phone has a pile of poop emoticon. It's from emoji. Too bad it won't work here. He's getting hens (from a HATCHERY no less, and I was going to give him chicks. Ptoey [spit]). Maybe he will have a surprise roo in his flock. Or maybe his hens will be too loud. I do think there are other...

Never got a chance. They stuck the notice in my door.

Well, I got the noise violation warning. Each further violation is $295. Anyone want a Marans rooster?

ANGRY. The neighbor is going to 'let the police deal with it' even after he figured out he was wrong about the rooster issue. He can complain about the noise, but I TOLD him I would adjust the light, but that he would have to wait until the roosters figured it out (someone/thing moved the light...

You have inspired me! Maybe I will get guineas!

No. The complainer is to my north. The pot-growing juvenile delinquent maker lives behind me (east) on the non-urban growth boundary (still country). The wiener dog owner lives to my west, and the big barking dog is north west. I sit smack in the middle of all of this and get complaints for my...

Let me just remind folks, this should be a total "Welcome to Oregon" post!

So exactly like my story! The house next to me (where Mr. Poop Stirrer now lives) was empty for over two years. 2/3 of a mile away is Summer Jo's and they have dozens and dozens of chickens. My neighbors in front of me (I live on a flag lot) moved in with two wiener dogs, and now has three. Yip...

The ordinance says poultry is okay. Just like that. Poultry. No regs about hens/rooster or amounts. The only problem I can see is our 'nuisance noise' law. I changed the timer to come on at 7 am and go off at 8 pm. The chickens will put themselves to bed by the tube lights that are still on...

Tomorrow I am going to take a half dozen eggs to the closest sets of neighbors and talk to them about the roosters. Should I take 'one blue chick' (one week old) with me? They, the roosters, are friendly and eat peanuts from my hands. We are using them to breed Marans (one is a splash and the...

I am trying to keep my temper right now, and I need some advice. We live in a neighborhood outside the city limits. We live in a certain section of urban growth boundary that is not completely annexed. My grumpy old man neighbor, who moved here saying he looooved chickens and was so excited to...

I have a single now, and after reading this, I picked up a little mirror. Fantastic idea, and she sits and chirps at the mirror all day! Thank you!

Sorry! This part never gets easier.

Wow! At 2:30? I thought they laid every 26 hours? She's pretty amazing then. My girls just about follow the 26 hours, and then it's too late in the day and they start over after skipping a day.

I have THREE beautiful ten week old hen-raised marans roosters. Two are black copper marans (one is very very sweet and the other isn't aggressive but not as affectionate, so first come first served), and the other is a splash marans. They are just starting to crow and sound like twelve year old...

YES! Aren't they the cutest?
