    Map issues

    So a week ago I looked at the map for chicken laws to show where chickens are allowed and now I can't get it off my Google maps. Can anyone help me remove the markers? I can't figure it out!

    Thinking about adding Geese

    We have been considering Geese but a few people told me they are mean and I've held off getting some. What if we hatch them ourselves and just keep interacting with them is that better?
