There were a few posts that some didn't know what I was pointing out on this chick. This is one of 28 eggs I pulled out of my Silkie pen and I hatched 26 of them the beginning of December I believe. Now look at the feathering, this should give away why I'm disappointed. This is the one out of hundreds from this pen that I'm aware of with this problem.
It's not very silkie... is it, fire?

Morning/afternoon everyone!  

Ok, I am not zoned for having chickens, but I'm on 2 acres.  At some point, I want to change my zoning, but until then, I'm taking my chances. We've been here 4 years, and nobody has complained.  

I have a brother that lives on my lot in his motorhome.  That is illegal in my town.  I have an obnoxious neighbor that complained about the motorhome living - she CAN NOT SEE my property, I'm at least 75 feet higher than the roof of her house - but we've had several run ins with her.   I've had to evict my brother.  

When code enforcement comes up to make sure we have nobody living in a motorhome, they will see my chickens.  So, we are having to dismantle their runs and disguise the coop as a shed.   We'll have to stash the chickens somewhere - is there any suggestions on how to keep them quiet?  There are 18 hens (and 1 rooster that we'll bring inside).  We should know when he's coming, so it should just be a couple of hours.

It would be really nice if he came up at night after they roost, but that isn't going to happen.

The joys of living in the middle of a city....


Bring them in your house as house pets, put them in the bathroom. Don't let code enforcement inside.
 
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?
:love
Uh-oh... looks like I killed the thread. Okay, I'm going to go check on my chickies now. That should get things moving again!!! :(
