Hello from Michigan

[luvmy4]

Hi all, I am a want to be chicken farmer.....still trying to figure out the laws here. I am a SAHM schooling 4 kids so far. We do have a vegetable garden but are hoping to start having chickens and goats. Does anyone know the laws for Independence TWP (Clarkston) Michigan? I've been searching and can't find any info!

You're right by my dad. He's on the border between Bloomfield TWP and Troy.

If nothing else, get chickens and when the TWP tries to make you get rid of them, hide the chickens & invite the TWP board over for a nice roast chicken dinner. After they leave, bring the clucks back out.

Oh Gee, you are all too sweet. Thanks for making me feel welcome....I can tell this is the place to be....

Well, we got fencing today and will be renovating our shed.....have no clue what type of birds to get....I want about 15 to start. Perhaps 7 meat and the rest layers.....breed recomendations for MI?
