Idaho HOA

[Livia Ammon]

This makes me glad I live on 11 acres of non-HOA land.
10/10, would recommend

 

[StarOnFire59]

I live in Caldwell Idaho, and my HOA CC&R's say:

"Animals. No animals, livestock or poultry of any kind shall be raised, kept, or permitted within any Lot other than a reasonable number of domestic household pets which are not kept, bred, or raised for commercial purposes and which are reasonably controlled so as not to be a nuisance."

So it's all one sentence....

I'd like to have 3 or 4 backyard hens. Who would have names, who would interact with our dogs, and honestly be our pets. I wouldn't be selling eggs, nor breeding them, they'd just be pets with benefits.

I know two other houses in my neighborhood (there's 200 houses all together) that have chickens, but with my luck I'd be the one to get called out....

What's your interpretation of this?

Any thoughts / suggestions?

I live near you, next town over, but luckily not in an HOA. I have 3 hens. I can have up to 6, but no roosters (city ordinance). They have their own little house with a run that matches the shop. I think it's quite nice & adds to the home's value.

chickens are poultry, so I guess they meant no chickens? But people do keep quail as pets, so you might try getting some Japanese Coturnix?

I also have the Americauna, except they are Bantam Americauna. Only 3 of them, and pretty quiet.

not sure how anyone could read that and not be clear on chickens not being allowed.
