It's a pain. One complaint and my chickens have to go, but I'd get to keep my conures/parrots(very noisy). Makes no sense really. I wonder what it would take to get chickens reclassified. Many of us consider them pets-and that's what they are. My serama bantams certainly are not for eggs and meat. I wonder how much meat this pullet would provide?That's what I had at my last (much smaller) house. This house, shouldn't even remotely be a problem, but I"d hate to leave things as they are, and have it become a problem. NOBODY has complained about my chickens, but I"m not sure what rules the code enforcement officer has follow.
