New and hoping to be able to have chickens!

post #1 of 9
Thread Starter 

Hey i am new to this site and to chickens in general! i am totally excited about getting chickens and DH is on board too but we have hit a snag with the township, they don't ever return calls and are really annoying to try to talk to!  i am almost tempted to get my chickens secretly and deal with the consequences later but DH wants to do it right...anybody have any advice for applying for a use variance for my land that is just barely not big enough to have chickens?

Hi and welcome to BYC from northern Michigan big_smile.png

You may want to post in the Local laws and ordnances section

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?
