Hi I am new to this site. I would love to have chickens, but our neighbors would not sign the OK. We live in a HOA. But that does not mean that I can't read everything about them. So just in case someone signs the papers. I am gathering much information and plan to build the chicken coop and use it as an aviary. White doves for now. When they get comfortable with the wonderful coos. Then they won't notice the girls.
