I am attending BYU in Provo. I don't have any chickens yet, but someday I'd like a flock of Delawares and Buff orpingtons. I'm planning on asking the landlord to see if we could have chickens or not- we're only allowed "birds and fish", but a chicken's a bird, right? And he cheats himself- he keeps his little dogs outside in a pen, and the city let him do it. After college I'm not sure where we'll go. Somewhere that allows chickens though!
My family raises chickens, and I've grown up with them. We usually have americanas (the feed store called them aracanas, but I don't think they're right), red sex-links, a few RIR's, and barred rocks. I think they may have a buff orpington or two, but I'm not sure. My husband gave my family 8 baby chicks right before we were married- they don't have room for eight cows! A few months ago Dad brought us up a dozen eggs that those chicks had layed.
