And NO FUCKING CHICKEN SHACKS GUYS. These are henHOUSES okay? Dont wanna see no plywood leaning on bricks type shit.

Seems pretty reasonable

Canadian here: Do I have to have been to Iowa to get this? Seems like a pretty reasonable bilaw to me.

I know here in Halifax you can have pet chickens.

My major objection is the $25 fee.

Those are perfectly reasonable urban/suburban rules for keeping chickens.

I like roosters though so i’d allow them but i can see why other people don’t like them.

My town has a similar ordinance.

I've got 14 hens and a rooster.

Our president rapes children. You wanna hassle me over a fucking rooster? Here's a dozen eggs, find someone who gives a shit.

The point of the ordinance is for Karen's to fuck with their immigrant neighbors. It's not enforced on white Americans like me. I'm fine. Karen can suck my cock.

That's 100% it, too. I know it comes across crass but that's the reality. Cops aren't going around auditing chickens or even listening for rooster crows. The only way this is enforced is by neighbor complaint, and only asshole neighbors would complain about shit like this, and IME most assholes are racist.

I think the rooster clause will be brought up if one of your neighbours makes a noise complaint.

Like many rules, you'll be fine unless someone takes offence.

Chicken slums

I remember looking at a house in Bristow, OK, and learning about the chicken ordinance which was much like the OP.

We heard at least two different roosters while we were looking at the house.
