If I hear some damn rooster at 4 in the morning squawking it's ass off I will kill someone..
Vancouver City Council passed a bylaw just yesterday, March 5th 2009 and now Vancouver, British Columbia along with New York City, Seattle, Portland, Victoria, Burnaby and Richmond are all allowed chickens in their backyards.
Chickens in Vancouver's Backyards? This isn't farm country!!!
This is the strangest thing I have heard in quite sometime. These chickens are going to be messy, loud, stinky, attract flies and so obnoxious. My neighbours already have old mattresses, old junky cards, old tires and illegally set up satellites.. Let me just pray to god for one moment that they don't know bring chickens into the mix.
What about the raccoons and other animals that are going to try and eat those chickens? They better not touch my chihuahua!!!!
I guess it's better that the chickens are free range and not abused in their cages before they get horribly slaughtered.
Let's just hope we don't all get some sort of chicken virus like Avian Influenza
I've read the book "Skinny Bitch" by Rory Freedman and Kim Barnouin and it describes animal cruelty so much that I have given up meat now, so I am kind of happy that Vancouver has embraced this so that chickens can roam free in the back yards of good caretakers.
I am kind of on the fence about it..
I just hope people aren't going to try and illegally sell their chickens eggs or abuse them.
What do you think about this new bylaw?
Will you raise some good old fashion chickens in Vancouver?
