Mazomanie, WI - four chickens allowed

[bungalow10]

Mazomanie, WI passed an ordinance this week specifically allowing a household to have four chickens, no roosters, in village limits.

Previous ordinances prohibited farm animals. Some people kept chickens as "pets".

I don't know about your chickens, but my chickens are not prudes. They refuse to wear clothes!

Nice. Can you give background? What instigated this? Community pressure?

I really don't know. I do know they settled on four as the magic number because that is what nearby Madison allows.
