well everyone. the time I have been fearing came. tonight was the city board meeting. I went in front of them and read them all my stories and research and in the final sentence I asked them if they would consider making an allowance in their ordinace. after they discussed it aloud for a few minutes. their answer literally made me drop to my knees in front of them all in that room.......................not only do I get to keep my chickens and my goat but they are rewriting an ordinance to allow home owners to have chickens and mini animals as long as they get a permit. I bawled my eyes out in that room it was like every single emotion that I have had since the beginning of this flooded out of me. I had people coming to me saying its ok hun its all done. I feel like a house has been lifted from my shoulders. I am so happy I still cannot stop crying.

WOW

now that's a story with a fairy tale ending

im so happy for ya

and be proud you are the sole reason why even now others can keep chicken too

You should encourage everyone in the neighborhood besides the grumpy puss ones to own chickens. Wouldn't that be just desserts for the bully that tried to take your harmless birds!

Thanks everyone! Today I took my paint silkie. Popcorn out for a little stroll and I cannot tell you how many people stopped and asked me about her. Many people fell in love. And I told them about the new ordinance coming and told them I have silkie eggs in the incubator and once everything is in place I would be happy to give them one or two. Normally when I have my chickens out I'm hiding them and shushing them and it felt amazing to walk proud and anxiety free with her!
