Howdy from Ft Collins, glad to have you join us! In the city proper, you can have 4 chickens (no roos) and a permit is required, which is I believe about $10 or $15 per year. Our back property line is also the city limit, so we're technically in the county. Here we're allowed to have 6 hens (no roos) and no permit is required.
Sorry I can't help with housing. We do have one house on our block that's a rental, but it's occupied at the moment. You might check the Ft Collins Coloradoan, which has the want ads on their website.
DH just applied for a job in Washington, D.C. Part of me hopes he gets it as it would guarantee continued employment after he is out of the army but part of me really doesn't want it as I'd have to give up the ladies and live in an apartment. :/ I don't even know if there are areas around there that allow chickens. I will probably keep stressing until we get an answer. They closed applications and are reviewing now. It would be 5 months from now before he'd be filling the position but yeesh. We talked about possibly moving to Utah or even, briefly, Kansas. DC came out of the blue but the job was a perfect match for him so he applied.
HI Everyone!!!
My husband got out the military and got a job in Colorado. We are moving to Ft. Collins right after Christmas. We are hoping to find a home to rent in the Poudre School district, that is also is dog and chicken friendly. I have been dreaming about having chickens for over a year now. Done all my research, just doesnt seem to be that many rural or chicken friendly rentals out there. I was hoping that if you knew an good place to look?
We need a 3 or 4 bedroom.
We have four kids and a beagle.
Our budget is up to 1350.
ANy insight or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!!!
Thanks so much
I know how you feel. Hubby has 5 years left and I'm already stressing about what's next. He'll be able to work practically anywhere, but of course, that means we could be moved ANYWHERE. Good luck!
