I am glad things worked out for you. Almost makes you want to find a postcard with a pic of a roo, write "This is what a rooster looks like. , and mail it to your nosey neighbors, doesn't it?

Love their names! I'm so glad they dropped the complaint but if you're in the county you should be able to have a roo! I say you should borrow one of mine for a weekend and let those neighbors know what a roo sounds like! Did I say that out loud?

In Michigan, we have the "RIGHT TO FARM ACT", but only if your property allows "agriculture" (keyword) in your zone.... I called our state capitol and spoke with the department of agriculture. They explained to me regardless of what your ordinace says, if your zone allows "agriculture" you have the RIGHT TO FARM. You don't have to have a certain amount of property or anything...you simply have to be inspected by them to see that you are able to keep your chickens humanely in a save, clean, and proper area. You should make a phone call to your state department of agriculture and ask for help! Unfortunately, my zone doesn't have the word "agriculture" so I too had to get rid of my chickens....I'm very sad, and angry with what I thought to be a friendly neighbor....but, I'm not going to quit! I want my chickens back! Good luck and feel free to e-mail me if you need to!

Great looking hens.Be wary of the neighbors.People who go to the effort of (false)reporting would not think twice about tossing something over the fence to harm the animals.

Thanks again for all the support and info! Its nice to know that their still people out there that care about others. So happy that North, South, East and West get to stay with us. I'm also really excited that we can add more to our little family come Feb. (when our favorite feed store starts having chicks again)!
