chicken laws

Ok, so here's the story. About 2 months ago, someone in my town (about 1 mile away) had bought some chickens and a coop and put them in the yard. Because they're on a corner, everyone could see the coop. Local kids loved it, etc... However, they had a rooster. So they attracted obvious...

So, here we are still in the middle of this Covid19 thing. In the beginning there were no eggs to be found in the stores and now there is a meat shortage.... it makes sense to have a few chickens, as eggs are a wonderful source of nutrition.

In the city of Citrus Heights, CA the current city code says that (basically) in the city you can only have chickens (up to 10) if your lot is over 10,000 square feet. Mine is a little short of this, and on Feb 3rd I received a code violation notice. It said that I had until Feb 10th (less...
