I will be relocating to FWB soon and I am wondering if anyone might know the local codes for backyard hens? I have 4 hens.

Thank you in advance.

I think its 8 chickens per acre or quarter acre
depending on if you are in city limits or not.

Do you have any idea about Navarre? We just moved here, and I am having a hard time finding ANY information

 

[wickedgame89]

No I don't. But Google will be your best friend. It can't be that strict because that's where I got my flock from!

In Destin here it is 5 hens no roosters i believe. Seeing how navarre is unincorperated. I bet skys the limit.

I'd bet my flock on it! The couple I got my hens and roo from had about 20 other birds. Numerous ducks, random breed chickens and silkies. Their form of shelter was a trampoline with netting around it.

Navarre doooooes for sure have bears so make sure they have a very secure pen/house

Good luck with that one.Lol Maybe with electric fencing though, Thats what I do at least have on my main pen. BTW we had a bear in Destin just a couple days ago!

Yeah the fact no wildlife place or whoever is in charge for removing wild life in rural areas hasn't removed him and put him somewhere safe is ridiculous!
