Raising backyard chickens is becoming more popular in suburban and urban areas, but before you bring home chicks, it is critical to understand the zoning laws and HOA rules that may apply to you.
In this episode of The Coop Podcast with Meyer Hatchery, Phil and Lauren break down zoning regulations, homeowner association rules, and local ordinances that affect poultry keeping. We walk through where to start, how to research the rules in your area, and why checking before you buy chicks can save you a huge amount of stress and heartache later.
You will learn how zoning laws work, how HOA restrictions differ from local ordinances, and what renters need to consider before starting a flock. We also explain why your county extension office should be your first stop, how to navigate complaints from neighbors, and how to stay compliant while still enjoying backyard chickens.
