How I secretly raise chickens with HOA restrictions

[Yogagirlinaz]

Not allowed at all by HOA gulp . . . nooooooo that coop in my backyard is for the cats duh

With the cost of feed its cheaper to buy eggs at the store then to raise them so not everyone wants to have them. If you get caught just say you put mirrors in the pen and makes it look like more lmfao.

That was true when feed was cheap.

We were allowed up to 16 at our old house as we had the biggest property in the subdivision ( all were standard 1/4 acre lots except ours was 2 acres ) so the neighbors couldnt have them but we could... thing is, if you got a permit and inspector approved it for 1 next year renewal they will be back to inspect it again to make sure it complies with codes... be careful as inspectors love to just pop up unexpectedly, all it takes is one "Karen" walking down that sidewalk to hear the commotion.

Here at our new place, 6 acres in the midst of farmers.... no more worries.

HoA's should ban outside cats not chickens. Chickens don't kill local wildlife.

Some do.

HOAs can ban or allow anything they want. that’s the upside of being the ones who make the rules.

whether you agree with the rules or not is a different story, and that’s where your freedom of choice on where to live comes into play.

Yes and no. I don't think they can allow more than what local codes allow.

Yes and no. I don't think they can allow more than what local codes allow.

well, yeah. but i figured that part was just universally understood.

Maybe I overthink things, maybe.
