She's been eating for two days now, and I can't tell you how relieved I am. I know you guys were thinking positive thoughts for her, so thank you so very much.

I have been in touch with our code enforcement officer, and our city manager, and it seems they are both pro chicken! I was told I got the notice because a new neighbor had observed the chickens while with the code enforcement officer, so he felt he should contact me. He told me he won't be driving around to see if I got rid of the chickens, so for the time being, they're safe. I was strongly encouraged to go to the city counsel and see what I could do about getting code changed... that's why I need to find something fairly straightforward that I can present to them that they can vote on quickly. Hopefully, we're about to start a chicken epidemic in town.

Whatever you do, don't use the words "chicken epidemic" when you try to convince them. They'll probably go straight to "bird flu" and get the torches and pitchforks! Maybe chickenpalooza, or flockfest. Positive spin!

ROFL!

Did you ever figure out a neck brace for Georgina?

Good advice. I'm just going to keep it as low key as possible and get my girls safe. Wouldn't it be great if they didn't put a limit on the number I could have?

I have been finding most cities/towns in Ok have their codes online. Shawnee is the only one I've found right now that allows chickens. Any one else from a town that allows chickens that I might look at their codes?
Thanks!

Might check Muskogee, city allows 4 hens i think- i'll have to look, we are outside of city so i haven't paid alot of attention

did find this one...sorry we can't take our chickens to play at the park

Both the Tulsa one and the BA one I posted earlier had links to the city code online.

Hi guys!

I'm brand new to BYC and have only had my little flock for a few months. I love it. I'm looking for isbar chicks locally (broken arrow or tulsa area). Please let me know if anyone has a lead. Thanks
