Are quail permitted? Could be a suitable alternative to backyard chickens, but you would absolutely need to keep them in cages as EVERYTHING eats quail.
I'm pretty sure quail are permitted, with EXACTLY the same rules as chickens. EG minimum pen size of 600 sft and all the setbacks and a coop required, not cages. They also would not allow keeping them in cages all the time. When I find the ordinances again I'll check that too for the exact wording.
Actually it just occurred to me, the way they've written the rules makes it impossible to keep even ONE chicken, because that minimum pen size is regardless of how many chickens (or other barnyard fowl) you have.
Plus ... I want eggs. Not pets. CHICKEN eggs, LOL!
