They are going after you for practicing Animal Husbandry--in a very small way you are--about the same amount as someone with a small vegetable garden is farming. In a very general sense they are not wrong, but the scope is very different.
I don't agree...if they don't define livestock....all she has to say is that they're pets, not livestock. If livestock isn't defined as including poultry they can't just say it does....it has to be in writing in the ordinances.

Have any appropriately aged kids join 4H or FFA, and provide some of that information.
I dont' think I would do that.....part of the point of 4H and FFA is to promote farming and animal husbandry....when the board doesn't want them to practice "animal husbandry." I would be doing what I could to represent them as pets.
I agree that they don't have a leg to stand on if that is all that it says about "chickens"
