    I think my chickens hate their coop!

    I'm glad to see I'm not the only rebel against my hoa with "bootleg" chickens! Sadly, this year I got one REALLY sweet roo in the lot....and the neighbor's definitely complained when he started crowing :(

    Thank you both!! Yes, the coop will have a small run for when I'm not nearby (I usually am) and of course to roost at night. I'm picking up a LOT of hardware cloth today to 1: go UNDER their coop...stapled to the bottom of the fence perimeter and under the compost bin. I have a new steel...

    Hi all-new to this forum and wondered if anyone got an answer back from the Stonebridge (aka "Stepford") HOA on chickens? I wish I'd seen this forum couple months ago since they were having board elections... I really don't like that the HOA's have so much authority. In Texas they can file...
