I've been interested in having a few backyard chickens for a while. Where I live, it's not *exactly* legal, but I've spoken to one of my neighbors who used to be on the board about the code here. He said that a guy wanted to see about getting it changed, but it kind of fizzed out when it was apparent that no one really cared. He had neighbors that didn't mind, so that was that. So I'm taking that as precedent! In reality, i'm not to worried; it's pretty laid back. Plus, I have my parents on one side and cool neighbors on the other side, so it's all good.
I'm wanting to start building a coop soon. Would like to have about 4 chickens in a coop with easy access (I'm tall and don't want to bend all that much). It would be great to do as much as I can with pallets and other reclaimed wood after framing up the coop. I'd also like to have a long run that I can put a few raised bed gardens upon.
The idea that I can introduce my children to some agricultural opportunities like this is enticing. Plus, eggs!!!
I'm looking forward to visiting here and soaking up all of the assistance I can get, so thank you in advance!!
