    Make Chickens Officially Legal in Cambridge, MA

    Happy to help you- I'm in Peabody and went through an approvals process with the health board. If there is nothing in place, you could use that as a framework for discussion with the city?

    16 weekers and noise

    Yup, he's going to a chicken farm nearby. Hopefully he can live a good life and make all the noise he wants to! He's harassing the girls as well, there are feathers all over the run

    Spring 2017 first timers post!

    Just gave my 2 week old chicks live mealworms. At first they were hesitant, but then chased each other all over the brooder if one got a worm in its beak. Best 3 minutes entertainment! Now it's nap time

    Spring 2017 first timers post!

    Here's my set up, picking up 3 chicks this weekend. Paranoid about fires after doing some reading. I can raise or lower the lamp by stacking or unstacking boxes.
