Hi!
When I introduced myself I told you about renting chickens and mentioned my town ordinance. I have a few questions I am hoping for some guidance.
I'm attaching pictures of the 3x6 coop Rent the Chicken provides. I am getting 4 hens. The town tells me it's not big enough. Can I get feedback from you guys, is it too small for 4 chickens? I am not supposed to allow them to free range at all in my yard (which is pretty large for our town, 1/3 of an acre) I have my doubts that it's too small too.
Then the zoning officer in town tells me one of my hens will become a rooster. Seriously, she said I have to come up with a plan for when the alpha hen's sex changes and it begins to crow. Am I crazy, but a hen can't change her sex right??
Thanks!!
