New article City of Sacramento on the verge of allowing chickens...the catch
--will need a permit,
--birds must be kept in a pen at all times,
--you are allowed only 3 birds
--pens must include 3 nest boxes of 3-5 feet per hen and pen must be at least 15 square feet but not more than 42 square feet
--pen area must be at least 20 feet from neighbors in your back lot,
--.no roosters
I think this needs work. I feel chickens should be free range, the number allowed should be based on backyard size. Your thoughts?
