    Talked with state rep & state attorney this afternoon, I was told that the laws only apply to a comercial operation. No definition of how much one must sell to be considered commercial so I was wondering if law applied to a small scale egg operation. Attorney told me that yes this could be...

    Has anyone ever tried to get a emergency injunction for their hens?

    Still fighting - looking like the injunction thing is going to be a no go - I refuse to give in to injustice playing out before me. Our countdown to when our hens must leave has begun - I spoke with several divisions of NC agriculture today to see if anything pertaining to state laws could...

    Health officer said my chickens must go....My kids are very upset!!

    I am going through the same thing with my children. Depending on your code there may be a way around it, if not you may have to try to change the ordinance. We began our fight in Oct 2008 and are still fighting, our council however is very stubborn and but is willing to revisit the issue, in the...

    Has anyone ever tried to get a emergency injunction for their hens?

    How could I use the NC right to farm act in my favor? Just looked it up and it seems to apply - we haven't really "sold "many friuts, veggis , or eggs but neighbors will give the kids a few bucks for extra eggs every now & then - is there a dollar limit on being a agriculutral operation? What...

    Has anyone ever tried to get a emergency injunction for their hens?

    or I could just purchase 1 acre to go with my 1/2 and get a horse - it seems funny a horse needs less room than a chicken

    Has anyone ever tried to get a emergency injunction for their hens?

    We live in NC - I think the mayor would be on our side however she has said to me many times that this is an election year for her and 2 other council members - and she feels this is affecting the outcome - The population in our town is a little over 4,000 people - We don't have an attorney...

    Has anyone ever tried to get a emergency injunction for their hens?

    Can't apply for an appeal,when the "case" was never in court only "tried "before Town Hall. The town has come to the conclusion that they need to rethink the entire animal ordinance. I have already asked for a text change to the section pertaining to hens and was denied 1x they will however...

    My Husbands afraid that if I keep pushing,they ( town officials ) will make our lives miserable - I'm not so sure - I think its my legal right to see that the officials look fairly upon this issue instead of basing desicions upon myths and personal opinions. We have been before the council 2xs...
