So, I live in an area where the local rule says that backyard chicken coops have to be at least 10 feet from an existing structure. It sounds like this is referring to a house, but the best area for a coop in our yard is under 10 feet from a shed... Is this okay?
I am considering possibly getting chickens, but I don't know what breed(s) would be best for me.
We live in the city, so we would need chickens that generally quiet and not flighty. The climate is pretty mild and it doesn't get too hot or cold year round so that is not much of a concern...
