That is actually kind of cool. MOF (my other friend) wants one. :)
MOF's sister's husband is actually industrious enough to actually build their own coop. Bu they live out in the country and not twenty-five yards from one of the busiest streets in Waynesville.
BTW, I hate eggs (unless their wrapped up inside a chocolate cake). But I like chicken. :)
Steve, the post I found this on suggested that many cities allowed small numbers of chickens like this. We are talking 2 hens providing 8-12 eggs per week. Though it did say that chickens are not allowed in Detroit.
Tony, not liking eggs is just more proof that you hate America. Having them wrapped inside a Chocolate cake makes up for some of that.
But I like chicken. :)
Yeah, I don't think this is for you. They are selling these things as producing pets. Pretty sure your kids would revolt if you started chasing the pet chickens with a hungry look.
Wow. Can't a guy just go to Atwoods and buy some chicks for $2? My dog likes chicken I'm sure... It's seriously funny that people would actually buy these. I thought it was a joke when I first started reading the site!
I'll settle for nothing less than the Henspasite, myself. And as long as you're not keeping roosters, the neighbors should be okay. Abbie and Streak, maybe not so much.
My first reaction was "Your dog wants chicken?" Then I quickly found my way to "mmmm, lawn eggs ..."
Here in Madtown, we have a city ordinance limiting urban chicken farms (certain number of chickens, no roosters), and small coops are really popular on the hippie-ish Near East Side. It started out as an quasi-underground movement and ended up as a city-regulated activity.

I am no farmer, but dogs and chickens don't usually mix all that well.
I am more worried about the neighbors. And SOF.
But those free-lawn eggs sound kind of good.
Free eggs does sound good. I live in city limits, so I am sure there is probably some ordinance.

Yes. Yes, they can. But that doesn't include the cool Egloo.
And backyard, farm, er backyard fresh, free-range (er lawn) eggs are no laughing matter.

I think the dogs could be trained. Except that Abbie would think that chasing them around the yard would be fun.
And I just knew that Madison would be into this.
Found this link here, if anyone is interested.
Mary, I like those hen houses, but they look big enough to require a permit!
