Support Needed

Common guys! We need all the support we can get! All it takes is a few people to make a change, and making chickens legal is a great place to start.  Maybe we can even inspire others to take a stand and make a change for something they believe in:)

Why?

We want to raise chickens for their eggs.  No hormones, fertilizer, or harmful chemicals. We want to make them legal so that we are able to enjoy rasing them rather then having to worry about getting the cops called on us. We are trying very hard to make them legal, but we need more support.   If there is anyone that has made chickens legal or want to make chickens legal, your help would be greatly appreciated.

Raising Chickens for Eggs

Backyard chickens

Yes to chickens

We are interested in getting chickens.  As of right now, owning chickens is illegal, and we are trying to get the village to make owning chickens legal.  The more support we have behind us, the greater the possiblity we have to change their minds.  We would like to hear what other who own chickens or don't own chickens, have to say on the matter please comment. The more people we get to say that chickens should be allowed, the better chance we have of making it happen.  Thanks
