Thank you , although I am not sure of the next step. One counsel member stated he didnt like how much time the chicken ordinace took up. ouch. They are afraid people will ask for cows next Not sure how that is logical as I have a dog and will I next ask for a wolf?

Yep, there is news. I think we are all too depressed to post. We didn't stand a chance. Only 1 yes out of all the counsel members. Looks like the chicken lovers didn't speak up loud enough before hand. Me included. River Falls, not the town I thought it was.

Tonight we find out!

Perfect. It suprised me since my black Australorp doesn't have any white. Obviously I am a chicken newbie. Now I will just wait and be patient to see if one of the 4 is a hen. I will probably be back for help on that one when they are a little older...

I am planning on being at the meeting. I don't know what needs to be done before hand, won't their minds be made up by that night? Have they been given anything like this handout... http://www.scribd.com/doc/16509728/Changing-Your-Citys-Chicken-Laws I will be very suprised if this town goes...
