SW Ontario Newbie here

[BYCNewbiw]

I'm really interested in starting some BYC but my wife is all concerned about the legality of it. We live in Petrolia and are just wondering if there is anyone in the area who knows that bylaws and are maybe willing to show me there setup. I'm not looking for a flock but a few chickens for eggs and maybe the pot

Thanks

Darrin

Hi Darrin,

I would say go for it. Maybe talk to your neighbors first and don't keep roosters. I know in Chatham when I was a kid you could legally keep up to 5 in the city.

As along as you keep their pen clean and the birds on your property and Gift your neighbors fresh eggs! They may enjoy seeing the birds!

Maybe call your local animal control?? They will probably be able to tell you what your rights are in regards to keeping chickens in Petrolia.
