Great! Thanks for that. Obviously that information isn’t easy to come by, lol. I’m so glad I’m on this site.Ohio does not have a minimum on how many you can own, just how many you can buy. You have to buy 6 minimum if you get them at a farm store. But you can get any amount from craigslist or somewhere else. Its only stores that have to follow that 6 minimum law. And I have named every chicken I have owned. But I do get rid of them if they stop laying eggs. I give them away for free on craigslist to a good home. Only had to do that once so far. I just gave away my first group of 5 ladies I ever had. Their names were Mini T-Rex, Violet, Charlotte, Reba, and Aviva. I miss them terribly but I will not keep and feed farm animals that can't feed me back. I did not get them for pets, but for their eggs. But if your chickens are pets, awesome! To each his own!
