Wow I just found this so at least I have a tele number to call:
San Jose California Chicken Ordinance
Are Chickens Allowed in this location Yes
Max Chickens Allowed 6 (no permit), 10 (permit) or 20 (permit) based on distance to dwellings
Roosters Allowed No
Permit Required No

Thanks, been there but the info is very inconclusive. You apparently can have more than six if you pay a fee and that's about it for the information. You'd think the city would reeeaaallllly want more bucks if I was willing to pay.
I'd like to get a few more than the allotted 6 chicken you are allowed in San Jose. But I can't find out where to apply for a permit or how much it costs or anything else. I swear government is lame sometimes. Can anyone help with information or a tele number?
