They have a noise ordinance, but no specific limitations on farm animals or chickens.
I have neighbors with horses, pigs, goats, fowl, anything you can imagine.
Just a noise ordinance is all they've been able to give me in writing.
I have to go to court in October regarding my chickens.
I'm new to this small town, which was sold to us as a homestead. The realtor assured me pets, chickens, and horses were all allowed.
My neighbors have goats, pigs, chickens, turkeys, peafowl, but for whatever reason I'm not allowed.

Okay... so it's been a minute...but I'm gonna try to create a post and add pictures..pause for dramatic effect... of my chicks at 8 weeks old.
This is clutch of 9, lovely mixed breed chicks. Dad is a buff bearded silkie and mom is a mix also of blue silkie and very golden EE. She is a beautiful...
The lighting is a little dark, but I'll take a guess and say from left to right; Millie fleur, black-mottled, and golden-neck? I could be wrong. I've heard the black can be anywhere from lighter to darker, so idk. I've always had Millie fleur's and I just love them. I think my roosters are so...
So sorry for you and your kids, and the frizzle who lost her buddy.
Hawks are so bad here and it's against the law to kill them.
When my flocks were young (I have 3) I would have to physically put them into the coop after dark. All 3 sets did the same thing, roosting right in front of the run...
I wanted broody hens that I could use to hatch and raise guinea keets. So only time will tell.
These may be mongrels. This is Stripe, the straight combed silkie.
Pip, he has grown...and then some of them hanging out, afraid of me.
Hard to photo that's for sure.
I bet you raised some...

I'm so bad at navigating this site. My reply is actually inside the quote box Sorry.....
I thought how you replied to each section was so cool, I tried to copy your skills....and failed. Lol - have a good one!
Thanks for your reply post! Long day (chicken life, lol) and it was nice to hear some positive advise and experience.
Hope to get pictures uploaded soon - Jess
Hawkeye aka Hula girl is my favorite girl. From the day I discovered her beak was a little different from her mates she did nothing but fight. She proved to me time after time I was wrong, she was a tough old bird, and she would fight for her life against all odds. I decided to trim the upper...
Hello, I was curious how your hen made out? I have an EE with the exact problem, there is very little info on this specifically and I assumed she had crossbeak. Her tumor is so large, the bottom beak is actually curving in on itself(kinda of like when you roll your tounge) and I can't see her...
Welcome, and nice intro!
BYC is my go to resource for experienced individuals! This community is so kind, intelligent, and most of all HELPFUL! I would not have been able to design and build my coop without these forums. Detailed and to the point. Anytime I enter a phrase regarding chickens...
Now that some time has past, I'm certain this a roo.I have some new pics that I'll upload soon so you can see the difference too. It's just fun to watch them change. I just did a treatment on all of them for coccididsis. I'm pretty sure two (of six) had it, probably from day one. Now I'm...
