What are the laws in Grand Rapids, Michigan?

[CluckinAndTruckin]

Can anyone tell me the current laws/enforcement in Grand Rapids, Michigan?

My family is considering moving there and I'd like to take my flock but I'm not sure if there's a chicken limit or if you can have roosters, etc, etc.
Where I live now we can't have roosters, but it's also not enforced, soooo, information on that would be nice as well. And just the general reaction to back yard chickens there.

Thank you!

Can I have chickens in Grand Rapids MI?


Coop must be under 8 feet tall. Coop must be less than 6 square feet per chicken. Only one coop for keeping chickens. Coop and yard must be 10 feet away from all property lines.

The limit is six chickens. If you have a rooster neighbors will complain.
