That's ridiculous, i can understand not allowing roosters on less than 3 acres but there is no reason not to allow other resident to have hens. I'd happily support the change. Good thing you told me because i was going to get chicks from tractor supply in the spring

I support a change in the chicken ordinance. I too would like a few backyard hens.

My husband and I are looking to move to a "chicken friendly" area. Does anyone know if anything changed in Randolph yet or if any other Morris County towns in NJ allow chickens?

I'm interested and know more people in town if this still is a go

hi I've had about three or four people that expressed some interest. I've also spoke to the zoning officer in Randolph. what we would need to do is put a petition together and get as many signatures as we could. we would also need to present a case to the Town Council on wWhy backyard chickens are a benefit the community. I spoke to a lady in Roxbury and went through the same process, there is also a lot of information on the Internet to help with this process. my son also belongs to the 4-h club, they are willing to help out with the process also. I also was able to get a list of people in town who have chickens, or have had chickens in the past. if you would like to get together send me an email and let me know, I will send you my cell phone number we can speak.

I am interested in raising some chickens myself. Please let me know if there is anything I can do to help make a change so that we can.

What ever became of this? We are looking to move into the area and I wanted a few chickens too. We are looking at a house that is shy of 3 acres.

Hey guys, I met with the assistant Township manager this morning and it is my intention to challenge the Randolph ordinance of minimum 3 acres and request it be revised by the Town Council to minimum 1-acre for backyard chickens in town. Looking for all the support do we can muster so please contact me at 973-978-5539. Thanks! Steven
