Why all the sudden are they after you ? Seems you've raised birds for along time at your house. People, you find something you like to do & someone finds a way to ruin it for you. Seems raising chickens is harmless why would someone even care unless the chickens are causing a health issue. I'm glad I moved away from the city. Happiness is the big city in my rear view mirror. I'm never going back. I moved & now live in a barn. I'm not trying to keep up with the Joneses I like wide open spaces & no neighbors.
