Well most people around me have chickens but by law we arent supposed to. Everyone is friendly about it and none of us have a crowing rooster. The ordinance is 3 acres and 100yards away from all property lines to own chickens in gwinnett county. I think its a joke because so many people keep chickens. My advice to you is just to discuss it with your neighbors before to see how they feel. If they ever get a bit noisy just load a carton of eggs up and give them to your neighbors lol everyone loves fresh eggs. But we are on 3/4 acre lots so really hens dont make any noise loid enough to carry off the property and be a nuisance. I hope you get a flock and help fight the ordinance here in gwinnett i will look for our petition! Lets get chickens allowed again!
