We are residents who live in Plain Township, Ohio that would like to have Ordinance 604.12(A) amended to allow up to six domestic fowl hens on properties of less than one acre.

Please join our efforts to change misconceptions about keeping hens.

They are a friendly, intelligent, quiet, low-maintenance, inexpensive and clean pet. And a bonus is the wonderful eggs they produce

The momentum is incredible. This shows how many people want fresh eggs in their own backyards.

I agree that chickens would most likely cause less disturbance that dogs!! Plain Twp lets do this!!

I live in a neighboring town and do have 5 chichens that are sorta like pets. They give us eggs regularly and are so entertaining to watch. I believe it is a good opportunity for families to learn to can for animals as well as put food on their tables. It is a good "family" opportunity.

Would love chickens to help teach my girls about agriculture and farming. Homeschool essentials!

I live in a neighboring community (Green) and several of my neighbors have chickens. They have never been bothersome! Allowing a reasonable number of chickens doesn't hurt anyone! Please consider changing this legislation!

We can have chickens in the city of Columbus Ohio. Much bigger population and often smaller yards. Why not in Plain Township?

I live on the line of plain township and North Canton city. My yard butts up against a yard that can have chickens, but I can't. I wish to have just 3 hens for fresh eggs and to teach my kids how to care for chickens. Backyard chickens are becoming as common as a backyard gardens nowadays. People want to know their roots and be more natural.
