Finally a thread that cheers me up!

Just got a call last night that someone complained to the mayor about our chickens

We have no bylaws that say we can NOT have them. They actually have nothing that says we can or can't. All I have found in the bylaws about farming/chickens/whatever is that one of their objectives is (and I quote): "To facilitate continued agricultural and forestry operations". I don't really think this pertains to me, but it's good to read anyway. They are concerned about the possibility of smell in the warmer months. Uh.. Yeah.. We are in Canada and it will not be warm until July

Okay.. So back to the thread. Awww. I just love your Gloria! She has to be my favourite out of your three hens. She is unique and makes such hilarious expressions! How are her leg mites now? Have you tried to wrap them after smothering the legs with Vaseline? Despite the leg mites, she is so obviously happy.

Because I never show off my head hen, Denny the Delware. This is the best picture of her. She is not easy to photograph. I find white hens more difficult to capture with an awful camera

She is still in the process of a molt. I really wonder how long this is going to take. She has looked pretty rough for the past month. She is quite moody as well

Look at this one closely

Does he not look like Foghorn?

It's okay everyone, He was just running around trying to hide his piece of bread!

He's so fast!

Here is McDonalds - She was on time out from her nest of golf balls. I closed all doors to the barn and the coop so she could get some fresh air, exercise, food and water. She was not impressed with my plan.

My duck was hesitant of my dog at first, but now he hangs out with him easily!

How DARE them try to insult your chickens!

Don't worry about it, sounds like you did your research and they can't report you in anyway.

Oh yes, my lil Glory. (Thats what I call her for short.... my lil Glory!) She is a card... such a serious "don't mess with me" face. It cracks me up when I go out (almost every half hour

) to check on them, and I see her looking at me from the dog house (thats their outside shelter) with a expression that says "What are YOU looking at, missy?"

Oh dear, I am such a slacker... I still have to go out and get vet wrap to wrap her leg in... but now that you've asked, i'm going right now to treat her leg with vaseline without the wrap.
Love all your chickens! So cute!

That's what I say! One of the neighbours FOR my chickens called me at 9:30 last night to tell her someone asked her to write a letter to the village complaining. She called us and we promptly called the mayor and said this is completely uncalled for. It was not a complaint against the noise (we have a rooster who does crow, which is not prohibited in the bylaws), but they complained about the POSSIBILITY of a smell in the summer. Really though? We've had them in August (the hottest month here!) and had no issues with smell. They are not overcrowded, I use DL method, so I stir or let them stir the litter every morning. We have two runs we rotate them between so neither turns into a mud pit.. What am I doing wrong? I will end up moving if they put a new law in place because of us. If I had eggs now I would have brought them to neighbours, but I only have two hens producing, which is barely enough to feed US.

I am like you! Every 1/2 hour

Everyone thinks I'm crazy! I would rather spend my time with the chickens than with other people
