Citizens for Backyard Chickens

i dont see why we cant have chickens limit 4...like other pinellas residents. dog and cat feces smell really bad. chickens are clean when healthy.

Education is key. A few points to mention: There are many 'backyard breeds' that are relatively quiet. A few hens of such breeds are much quieter than a few neighborhood dogs. Having just a few backyard hens are not "smelly" when properly cared for. Also worth noting; community gardens, farmers markets, and garden clubs all work to make a community more vibrant and diverse.

I want to be able to keep chickens

I lived in cities that allowed this. it's a great thing!!!

Thanks

Chickens are amazing pets!

if we don't fend for ourselves, who will?

Chickens are nicer neighbors than dogs!

I can see forbiding roosters because they make a lot of noise but hens do not bother the neighbord when confined to the owners property.

Life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. The ability to support oneself is the bottom line. Backyard chickens and homesteading, we want it back.

Chickens have been around for hundreds of years and should be allowed for people to have anywhere they want them.People need their own home grown chickens and eggs that are raised healthy.

We, as a society, have an obligation to return to a more self sufficient lifestyle. We are allowed to have a garden in our yards because it is asthetically pleasing, and we feel better about ourselves when we consume something that we produced. Chickens are in that catagory. There is nothing tastier than a fried egg that came from your own coop. Between the eggs for consumption, the manure that can be used to replenish the soil of our gardens, as well as the personal contentment that comes from observing Mother's creatures. Chickens are a low maintenance, fairly unobtrusive pet, that continually gives back to its caretakers. Allow backyard chickens in Clearwater, Florida.

we should all have the right to do whatever we like on our property

There is no reason citizens should not be able to keep a few chickens.

Every American should have the right to have at least a few chickens to help sustain their families!

A person should be able to raise chickens on their property!

The right to farm comes from God, not government.

There are so many benefits of raisng your own chickens.
