Sigh....we have 26 acres and we pay taxes on it as farmland. It is registered as farmland. But as I found out a couple of weeks ago the town doesn't allow roosters ANYWHERE. Unless no one complains about your rooster. If someone complains then the town makes you get of the rooster. It's ridiculous. I am so mad.....I really thought that Spock was allowed. I will be devastated if Spock can't stay. I really will be.
Our goat house is 95% complete. Just waiting for the wiring to be completed. I was going to get 3 Nigerian Dwarf wethers....but maybe I should get something bigger. My goat house is 8 by 12 and the pasture is about 1/2 an acre. Any recommendations a breed that would be good for this situation?
Also can I keep a few geese with my goats? ...probably not...DH will not go for that! I would love to borrow my friends guineas for a few days...but they fly and they would be in Crazy Lady's yard for sure. I need animals that will stay here!!
If you are taxed as farmland, contact the State and go over the town council's head! If it's a state matter, (and taxes are federal and state things, not town) the town council could be violating a State Law.
I admittedly don't know that much about jurisdiction, but I do know who imposes our taxes. It's worth looking into however, especially with re-elections coming up.
