I want chickens (a few hens) very much but it isn't legal in my town.  The city council hearing on backyard poultry was full of the same kind of foolishness displayed here "we used to be rural and poor, but now we are well off and suburban, and chickens would make us LOOK poor."  And one councilwoman saying "yuck.  I don't want to know where my food comes from."  At the same time the town is trying to promote itself as a hip, artsy, no-car-needed town close to DC.  If you can't keep up with the trends (ie urban homesteading) you aren't going to attract the young and hip.  Who, by the way, have chickens.[/quote]

OP here. I completely understand. Too bad you can't have them there :? Are you talking about Rockville? I read somewhere they have banned chickens or maybe it was any livestock or poultry, I don't remember. Check your nearby towns they are all completely different. That was one reason was moved from down county. Your example is just more people displaying pure ignorance and lack of information.
