I live in Caldwell Idaho, and my HOA CC&R's say:
"Animals. No animals, livestock or poultry of any kind shall be raised, kept, or permitted within any Lot other than a reasonable number of domestic household pets which are not kept, bred, or raised for commercial purposes and which are...
Hello all! I am new to the group and have a question. Has anyone been successful in adopting chickens to their HOA CC&R's in unincorporated San Diego? Currently, my HOA documents state that no more than 2 of the "usual" pets, i.e. dogs, cats are allowed per household. With the size of the...
Hello!
I am wondering if anyone has an example HOA covenant that allows up to 6 hens. Our city recently made a law change to allow 6 hens in residential areas with a permit, but our HOA does not. I am planning on getting signatures to put a petition together to the board, but would love to have...
Hello!
My family and I are really interested in owning chickens! Our HOA CCRs state we can't have "farm animals" but doesn't list what they consider a farm animal. I called my HOA and they said they consider chickens farm animals, but would be willing to revise that if I could find something...
Hello everyone!
I just joined this community, and I ordered 6 Pekin Ducks eggs and I have an incubator ready. However…there is a big issue…
My neighborhood HOA prohibits poultry (so not cool). I recently moved and I’m staying at another house while my floors are being done, and after coming back...
Hello! Wondering if anyone has ever dealt with an HOA that has a rule that states the following:
No animals shall be kept, maintained or quartered on any lot except that cats, dogs, rabbits, hamsters or caged birds may be kept in reasonable numbers as pets for the pleasure of lot owners so long...
Hello!
I have searched the threads in regards to local laws but they are old. I wondering if anyone knows if, in the state of Texas, can the HOA overrule the local laws? In my city (Princeton) people are allowed to have 6 hens, no roosters with the hen house at least 50 feet away from a...
Hello, I’m pretty new to BYC. I’m going to be getting either 2-3 silkie pullets this coming summer. Our state ordinances allows chickens but no roosters. Good. I go to our neighborhood deed restrictions. No good. It does NOT allow poultry. This is annoying. So, I’m either going to GO GET...
So far I love my chickens they are cute and healthy and happy about 4 to 5 weeks old now. Originally the idea was to keep them outside in a 6' by 6' coop with a 9' by 9' run. I have done extensive research, took a chicken class, found out county laws and such (I can have 6 hens). Everything was...

Hey everyone! We are currently battling our HOA over our right to have chickens as "domestic household pets" and after a lot of research we came across a few cases, one by the Colorado Supreme Court in 1970 that supports our cause and I wanted to share it with you...
Hiya! A little about me... and a question....
I am a mom of two little boys, a nurse and wife. Last year we moved from the suburbs to an acre lot surrounded by trees. These neighbors cannot throw a rock from their home and hit ours at all. I read the CCNRs before we moved. They were written 12...
I live in a neighborhood with an HOA and houses that are fairly close together. We have chickens but no fence that encloses the yard. It wasn't an issue last year but I see that the girls are very interested in the neighbor's yards (hunting chipmunks). So I have been looking at options to...
