Question by : Can you raise chickens in your backyard?
We have 8 chickens in our backyard right now. My dad wants to kill them because he says the city won’t allow it. We live in CA around the central coast. Can you raise chickens here? We only want to keep 1 or 2.

Does the city allow it? We live very close to our neighbors, and we’re on a busy avenue.

What do you think? Answer below!
