    Overland Park, KS Chicken Ordinance

    Thanks for the tip! I have spoken with the animal control office in Columbia and they are very pleased with their ordinance. Zero citations in three years! Columbia's ordinance is actually the one I am using as my starting point.

    I did have to withdraw my request. When I spoke to my HOA president she said there were no restrictions on chickens. Come to find out her copy of the declaration of restrictions was missing. Someone else has it and turned it in to the city threatening legal action if I didn't withdraw my...

    When I started the process, I knew that a lot of people are very misinformed when it comes to urban chickens. They have no idea what chickens are actually like or how well they fit in to their urban lifestyles. I have been working with a group from a chicken friendly neighborhood nearby and we...

    No answer on my hens today. One of the neighbors is protesting and saying they will take legal action if I pursue, claiming I will be in violation of our HOA regulations so I had to continue the meeting to December.

They would rather lower your bill then loose you completely. Insurance is also a good place to look for...

    I don't know how much it will help, but a favorite low cost dinner here is 15 bean soup. We just soak the beans over night then throw them in the crock pot with some diced tomatoes (about 2 cans), a diced onion and whatever other veggies and herbs we might have. It fills a crock pot for just a...

    Hello

    Hi! I'm pretty new to BYC also. I don't have chickens yet, but I have my application submitted for approval. You should be careful with this site. I have lost hours at a time to forums and how to's. There is just so much info every where you look.
