More rain coming in here soon,  I can hear the thunder.  But I have a full tummy and feel content.  I think I'll go out and play with the chickens.
Always move forward. Never look back.

You should stand up and tell them that hens don't wake you up in the middle of the night crowing.  A few hens with no roosters should always be allowed.  They bother no body.

How lovely for DeKalb, but I have no idea how barbed wire relates to keeping a fee hens in the back yard huh

Stand up and talk sense to them.  All politics is local. "No chickens, period" is a bad ordnance.

I'd have to either fight or up and move.  I won't live where people try to impose their stupid rules on me.  I guess that's why I live at the end of a dirt road out where nobody can find me.  If I am to be happy I have to feel free.

Amen to that!  When I was on the village council, it used to drive the county officials nuts that we were NOT under their rules and regulations.....

If we were a small town, it would be worth the battle...but Dekalb is a 'college' town pushing the upper 40k range......we're on the SW edge.....
