I will attempt to make this short and sweet
I just received a call from my uncle who is the mayor of our super super super small town, said neighbors in the apartment behind me are complaining about my chickens he said he thinks it's because they are pooping around the yard they use or something, I don't want to say exactly where I live just because that's just me but the population of the whole town is less than 650 people my house is half on county half on city land, my chickens free roam, always have I've lived here 15+ years same spot same everything, only difference is I do not have as many animals as I use too.
Regardless, I don't have a way to put them up, I can't afford to build anything, they put their self up at night in the sheds around the yard or trees whatever it may be, I was raised to let them run it is best for them and I've never in my life had someone say something, and to be completely honest I've never seen the chickens in yard of this neighbors apartment, they go in the thicket that is on my property.
Idk what to do, I'm not a very nice person when it comes to my animals and people wanting to complain, I've tried to find local laws nothing. There are leash laws here and no one enforces that or anything else the police are not even allowed to give people tickets, when I say this is a small town it is, just looking for insight
Thanks all
