In the city of Waltham MA it IS legal to keep fowl

Never mind. I finally got through to the town clerk and she gave me an unambiguous no for keeping chickens or waterfowl in the city.

Guess I will have to get my hands dirty in some politiking if I want this changed.

What has happened with your chickens since your last post? I want to keep chickens and I want to be sure they are legal. I think the city could raise cash with issuing permits, a dog license is $6. A chicken permit could be the same. Maryc
