    Default Chicken Coops for the City.

    Remember awhile back when I said that if I had 5-10 acres I would like to have some goats, chickens and a Jersery cow?

    Well, I found this website that shows quite a few chicken coops that can be used in the city.
    The City Chicken

    Now to get my DH to help me. I could put one in a very narrow space according to some of the pics shown.

    Just make sure your city ALLOWS chickens - hens and roosters or just hens. Nothing like a zoning board fight...

    Thanks. I have taken on City Hall before.
    They do allow chickens in my town, just no pigs. Hmmmm.
