Chickens in Bethlehem PA

[miccicke]

Bethlehem Zoning is very restrictive, but many properties fit within the guidelines. Just received my first flock. When I got my permit I was told their were 6 applicants ahead of me.

Hi all -

Another local here in Bethlehem, Pa. Could you please advise of the process and requirements for permitting? I am considering a small flock come spring, but am unsure if we are even eligible with our property.

Thanks much in advance for any advice!

PS Would love to come see your chickens.

Sorry it took so long, but I'm interested too. I live in Bethlehem Township and would love to keep a couple of hens for fresh eggs. Do you know what the laws are??
