KLC0623-Congrats on starting your coop. The chicken bug you say? Watch it, it's extremely dangerous, my darling husband started on coop #3 today.

 

 

reds-chicks- What a wonderful flock you have (alomost the same as mine). I'm still waiting on my blue and green eggs though. Glad you found the Maryland thread and welcome-byc.gif.

Hi Marylanders! Glad you found your way to this thread.

We are thisclose to getting to move to our new home in Mt. Airy. We closed 2 weeks ago and it's been a flurry of cleaning (it was a foreclosure, and while they didn't trash the house, they didn't scrub it after moving) and fencing. We have the fence 95% done, and my husband is planning to finish it tonight. Once that is done, I can move the horses this week and the family, including chickens, can follow. I hope to start a coop this week. Having chicks in the house is getting old. It's been a slow process because the new house is 2 hours away from the old...I spend a lot of time driving back and forth.

Welcome to the thread reds-chick!

Lot's of good "peeps" here.

Chickens and turkeys in the backyard since 1984. They co-habitate with PB pigs (5) and barn cats. Only purebreds are Welsummers, SC Rhode Island White and Royal Palm Turkeys. APA. NRA.

You would be amazed what you can trade eggs for.

No woman ever shot her husband while he was doing the dishes.

Oh yeah, I got a nap for that.

Is there anyone in Montgomery county that had to get a variant to get chickens? If so, how and what was the likelihood of that? It would really help me sad.pngsad.pngsad.png

Hello.  I am in Clarksburg.  I don't know about variants.  I just went ahead and bought a few hens thinking it is better to beg forgiveness than ask permission (especially in THIS county).  I've had them about 4 years now with no complaints.  A few of the neighbors are amused by them, especially the kids.  A gentleman from Beallsville told me the other day that everyone in the county can have up to 5 hens.  I was unable to find any solid information on the county web site.
