    Hi Again! Coop question & Town crazies!

    That is nice!! We picked up at starter coop yesterday that holds "14" but to me it looks like 4 comfortably, but it is expandable. We saw baby chick's and my husband fell in love so we're starting small and he plans to expand.

    Hi Again! Coop question & Town crazies!

    I wasn't planning on moving it. I can have up to 12 hens on my property according to the ordinance. Based on comments my husband feels we'd be better off doing our own coop and not renting (yay! I got him fully on board!)

    Hi Again! Coop question & Town crazies!

    Thanks! I can get a fence run to attach to it, but I think I would be better off with something bigger all around.

    Hi Again! Coop question & Town crazies!

    Hi! When I introduced myself I told you about renting chickens and mentioned my town ordinance. I have a few questions I am hoping for some guidance. I'm attaching pictures of the 3x6 coop Rent the Chicken provides. I am getting 4 hens. The town tells me it's not big enough. Can I get...

    Hi!! I am Maria from NJ, getting my girls in a few weeks!

    I had to find the class myself, they require an in-person class but don't offer any which is BS. The class cost me $35. I asked what I needed to prove I took the class and they said a certification, I asked what if they don't offer one, they said a receipt would do. We have several people in...

    Rent the Chicken provides you with newly laying hens, coop, feeders and feed, for about 7 months. At the end you can return them or "adopt" them. My town allows chickens, but you have to take a "chicken raising" class in-person, not online, in order to be granted a permit to keep chickens...

    Yup, $25 a year. Have to also pay for a zoning permit ($50), but that's just once.

    Hi!! I am Maria from NJ, getting my girls in a few weeks!

    Hi! I am getting 4 chickens later this month. My town requires a permit for chickens so I have to wait till the 14th to take a class then I can get them. I am renting chickens (the only way I could get my husband to agree to it). I have been reading and watching YouTube videos like crazy...
