Thread Starter 

Hi all!

I am currently renting in Addison, IL and recently have been looking to buy a home in the surrounding area. I know that Lombard, IL allows chickens but under confusing circumstances so i am just trying to figure out what town I'd be able to live in where I would be able to keep ducks in my backyard

Nice to meet you all!

Hi and welcome to BYC from northern Michigan frow.gif

Home of the world's cutest dachshund, one crazy blue heeler, two cats,
              one fat pony, and many (but not too many!) chickens

              Can anyone tell me, how many are too many chickens?

Hi there!

 

Lombard does NOT allow chickens. I was part of the effort to legalize a little over a year ago. The Village Board voted almost unanimously against legalizing backyard chickens. :(

 

I'm not up on duck ordinances...but I'm guessing of you are in UNINCORPORATED DuPage county, you won't have any problems.

Daria: Could you possibly be referring to the harsh light of reality?
