Chickortreat...hahaha. Dialogue is lost on you. Talk about bullying...an ax handle, really?. I just wanted to provide a differing opinion. There must be a reason that suburban areas have codes. Are backyard chickens a passing fad like potbelly pigs?
Why should your need for chickens in your backyard supersede my need to maintain my property values? If you want chickens, goats, pigs, horses, move to the country where you don't have to worry about neighbors,etc. maybe noise isn't the factor..smell is key here.
