Far too many new chicken owners don't want to keep their hens when they stop laying well (usually after 2 - 3 yrs.) and are giving them away to others who butcher them. If they are pets, keep them as pets. If they are a food source, stop being a hypocrite and learn to deal with the less pleasant, but realistic side of raising chickens. Ok, off my soap box now. :)Proverbs Thirty One Womanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00061731679235511146noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7534539169157708222.post-40654279369450753632014-06-12T07:11:55.227-04:002014-06-12T07:11:55.227-04:00I would love to have a goat!I would love to have a goat!elena maria vidalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17129629173535139807noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7534539169157708222.post-69657630946241329952014-06-12T07:04:20.747-04:002014-06-12T07:04:20.747-04:00Many cities are now permitting SF home owners to k...Many cities are now permitting SF home owners to keep chickens in their back yards, and Chicago is one of them. Some friends of mine here in Chicago now raise chickens in their backyard and are enjoying the fresh eggs, as part of a larger movement to develop local food production. <br /><br />We're hoping to get the city to allow goats next.
