Chickens in College?! :o

[DogAndCat36]

I have been thinking, in a few years I will be going to college and I will have to find a home for all of my chickens. When I graduate they will of most likely died of old age by then... So I am curious has anybody else bring their chickens to college and did they thrive?
Tell me your story, please!

I have been looking it up and only found stories from these Liberal colleges or something.
Recommended culinary colleges that allow chickens will be greatly appreciated.

I've joked about bringing Spook as an "Emotional Support Animal," but I don't think that that would fly.
If it would, though, then I'm bringing him.

Honestly, I've been thinking of bringing a pair of bantams with me to college. Not sure how the crowing would be though, so maybe just girls. Let me know what you find out!

Anything is possible. They sell chicken diapers now. There's people living with their chicken inside their apartments. true story LOL
I have one rooster 12 weeks old that is an indoor pet. LOL

I want to follow this thread! You take your chickens to college, it might make me want to reconsider! Chickens in college! The smartest chickens in the state! Wow! I thought of going to college to be a vet, but eight years and no chickens never sounded appealing to me. Wow! Cool! I'm going to have to tell my sister who is in Faith Bible College in Charleston, ME!

Statement of the obvious--read the rules for the college in question, and if you want an exception try asking. The dorm rules I have read said NO pets, some with an exception for fish if the tank was under a certain size. But individual colleges are sure to have slightly different policies.

Might be dangerous! Chickens going everywhere. . .
Mine are my therapy, too.

it would be nice if you folks that want to go to collage could place ads ahead of time that you want to share housing with someone that has similar interests as you . They had houses that you could rent where I lived and students would share the house with some other students that had the same interests . Just a suggestion . Good luck !

Forgot to add- I'm going to veterinary college.

They have to allow you to then!

I knew that, maybe they'd use them for lessons! I just don't know about the crowing. And having them cooped up in a cage for 8-10 years seems sort of cruel. Maybe quail? It will be a few years before I go to college, though.
