6Chickens in St. Charles, IL.
4 fancy little hens, their baby mixed Roo and 1 Silkie Rooster who looks like an alien. Chickens are lovely pets.
Joined BYC forum 1 year after accidentally learning to keep chickens as pets.
3 Boys brought home chicks. Husband/Dad said "Ok but they won't last long". Now we love our chickens and they have names. This one is Chloe.
Yes, we checked with the City Code. It is not exactly against the law to keep chickens in St. Charles, IL. But it is unlawful to sell, barter or trade any chick that has been dyed an unnatural color.
This is Chloe, walking away. "Chicken? What chicken? We thought this was a Shitzu!"
This is the Silkie Rooster and our americauna smiling for a picture "Roaster" and "Mr. Peeps"
