that was an old ordinance, I went to the city council Last year, as long as you have enough room you can have up to 20 / 25Be careful, Looked up info for Butte, new ordonly 6 chickens allowed used to be 25. They are under dangerous animals of all things, but dogs bite all the time.
I would love some advise. I have taken drastic action with my girls as the coop I have now has No insulation and it's metal, yes I know bad planning. Wasn't counting on these temps this year. Thinking of making a fence of straw around hen house, with tarp over top, it's a holy tarp, think the heater might work that way. $$ is issue this winter. Love my girls tho. Will fight to take care of them well.
Want to get together so you can help me brain storm? Hastings? Locketts?
Do you have a garage you can keep them in ? Sounds like there shelter is not real hardy, how many girls do you have? Do you have a porch you can put them on, or a good dog house?
