The undersigned citizens of Oshkosh, Wisconsin, respectfully request that our city leaders change the Municipal Code to allow female chickens (hens) to be raised as pets in backyards, with reasonable restrictions. We feel that the raising of chickens provides both children and adults an education in local, sustainable food practices, provides food security, promotes green living, expands our local food supply and provides an opportunity to learn responsibility and compassion towards animals.

Note to Petitioners: Please provide a valid City of Oshkosh address where you currently reside.
