Chickens in the News

Chickens in the News

I always enjoy seeing media articles about city chickens, especially from sources that usually have nothing to do with chickens.  Some of them are pleasant stories about living with backyard chickens, but a lot of times they are about disputes between chicken owners and their neighbors or city officials. Here are a few I have collected and hyperlinked.  Keep checking back.  I am always updating and adding to this post.
