hooray! That is good news. Does this mean you'll be getting some chooks soon?
welshpurpletree - Yes! I have to wait until October, when the bylaw goes into effect, and I have to sort it out with the upstairs neighbor, or find a different suitable location, but YES!!!
:-)
That is awesome Pam! I got my meat chicks today and I can't wait to get my layers. June 1 for them to ship. What a victory!
Yay! Chickens legal in another town! Good news for chickens and egg eaters. =)
Congratulations! on your hard work. I'm glad it paid off. I live in Brookline, MA and was looking into getting Serama chickens to be kept as indoor pets. Serama's are the lightest and smallest chickens in the world. They are from Malaysia where Serama's are more popular as a household pet than dogs or cats.
I have an incubator which I hatch Button Quail (http://jillsbuttonquail.blogspot.com/) but thinking of getting some Serama eggs. If you or your blog readers are interested in Serama chickens as pets please contact me by email jawarnick@rcn.com I love to share what I know about this tiny chicken.
It would be great to start a community of Serama chickens in the Boston area.
Again, congratulations on your defeat.
Jill
