Let's Talk Chicken Laws in Santa Fe, NM...

[Katrina89]

The city ordinances are so vague when it comes to chickens in the city/outskirts. Who lives in Santa Fe, and has chickens? Could you tell me about any issues you might be having with your neighbors or the city? Do you have roosters or just hens? Do you free range only in your back yard? Or do you keep them in a chicken run? Thank you in advance for your replies.

Ok... Thanks for reading my message. I'll find out through trial and error when I get my new house (probably sometime next year).

It's always best to check the actual local ordinances of where you will be living,
might be an important criteria in your house/property hunt.
