Chickens in cities with chicken ban

I live in the country but i would talk to my neighbors about poultry

Actually just curious what others have done in a this situation. I am unfortunately not moving, so will also not be able to have chickens. I am surprised how many have moved just to have chickens. I was expecting more people secretly having couple peeps, but evidently not so.
So not asking this to get recommendations what I should do, but to see what others have done.

Exactly! I so wish I could have some, I don't think I could do the indoor chicks, I have two small Italian greyhounds and don't trust them around birds or squirrels... can't even say any word that reminds squirrel without getting the crazy going on. Plus I work long days (10-12 hours), no way I can come home on my lunch just to change chicken diapers. So I think it will be just dreaming for me. We have just a sliver of yard on both sides of the house, so maybe one day I might try to talk with my neighbor to see what they would think of it, just to see if they would be ok with couple quiet peeps...
I already made my husband to promise that our next house will be where I can have a big garden, some chickens and goats... and you know, the list just keeps growing. I am a country girl in my heart.

I live where chickens are allowed, but Roosters are not. Funny thing is as I sit out in the morning drinking my coffee I hear at least 5 Roosters crowing in the neighborhood. They are, after all, chickens right

I'm in same type area. NO ROOSTERS. There is a reason for that,,, actually 2 reasons. The primary reason is the noise they create, which is a nuisance to those not wanting to be waken by them.
Hate to mention this but is more common than many think. Cock Fighting for money gambling. Same as Dog Fighting.

I was wondering if that is still going on... I mean the cock fighting. Sad, discusting and despicable!

Unfortunately it does happen. In some countries it is legal and popular.
In US it is Illegal. Last state to implement was Louisiana in 2008

I think a lot depends on your neighbors. If they are okay with it, probably no issue.
