Hey vwmomof3,
Glad you made it over here.
Glad your landlord is agreeing to chickens.
ETA- I just saw on your other thread that you've got over an acre. Yea! You're OK in Poulsbo.

A quick google search seems to make Poulsbo as less than chicken friendly. Here's some info I found on the Poulsbo site:
18.48.030 Agricultural uses.
Includes the raising of livestock, poultry and small animals (less than one hundred fifty pounds).
A. No raising of livestock, poultry and small animals (other than household domestic animals), shall be conducted on residential lots less than twenty thousand square feet in size.
B. On parcels of land greater than twenty thousand square feet but less than one acre, the raising of livestock, poultry and small animals (other than household domestic animals) shall be permitted by a conditional use permit.
C. On parcels of land greater than one acre, the number of animals per forty thousand square feet of area shall not exceed one large livestock (e.g., horse, cow, etc.) or three small livestock (sheep, pig, etc.), and six small animals or twelve poultry. If no dwelling unit or occupied structure exists within three hundred feet of the lot on which the animals are maintained, the above specifications may be exceeded by a factor of two.
D. No feeding area, structure or building used to house, confine or feed livestock, small animals or poultry shall be located closer than two hundred feet to any residence on adjacent property located within an RL, RM or RH district; provided, that a pasture greater than twenty thousand square feet shall not be considered a feed area. Odor, dust, noise, flies, or drainage shall not be permitted to create or become a nuisance to surrounding property. (Ord. 2003-10 § 1 (Exh. A, III(C)), 2003)
