Richmond, Texas (TX) - Fort Bend County

[anlashok]

So I'm moving into a new subdivision of Richmond, by Katy, and assume that the HOA would prohibit chickens. If anyone knows if they are at all permitted in Fort Bend County, TX or Richmond, TX please let me know.
I am looking at least though to see if there is anyone in the area (Fort Bend, Harris, etc) that I can get eggs and fresh chickens or meat w/o having to go to a farmers market. I did look into some of the farms in north houston, but pricing wasn't the greatest. Hoping if I find someone direct we can get fresh and "organic" w/o Whole Foods prices.
Thanks

Okay, called Richmond (281-232-6871) for you and the city of Richmond says you can keep chickens as long as they are caged, and do not become a nuisance. Of course, your HMO may have more to say on the subject.

anlashok there are a lot of Houston Area folks on the Texas thread. I am sure one of them can enable the chicken math...

Just saw your post. A bit late for me. LOL. We are moving into a neighborhood in Richmond where they allow only household pets and horses. Did you have an issue with your HOA?
