Welcome Ya! Laws are changing ,but very slow. Just get hens no roosters you should be fine.have a coop and housing so their not flying into your neightbors yards and leaving deposits. If I had my way everyone should have chickens, their a joy to watch. Here at back to basics I can never remember not having chickens.
80 chickens/9 guineas/2 dogs wanting another/6 goats/ 4 pigs at least now, more later, 2 hives of bees,2cats/1 beef/ worms/rabbits/ and my fish and frogs.
