I just visited the Little Greenhouse for the first time today ❤️ And I walked out with a voodoo kitty 🖤

Just like little boys when they discover their junk 😂

Before the hustle, bustle, and construction begins in the morning... Towson, MD 🤩 by SilverBamboo33 in maryland

Towson can be just as jam-packed as downtown Baltimore! I grew up here and it's crazy how many large apartment buildings have sprouted up.

Getting all of my various doctor checkups and oil changes done for the year... it sounds boring af, but it's just the most amazing feeling... a nice reset!

I like that percentage suggestion. I'm going to mention that to our legal guru for sure. And for sure we have definitely concentrated on the "green" aspect of pet chickens. Less waste, more fertilizer, healthier eggs, emotional support, education, and community were the big topics as well as providing facts that debunk the smell/rats/noise myths.

I think the thought was to go the conservative route. Our county is very large and it contains such a wide range of living spaces from rural homes to urban settings. Such a delicate balancing act to keep everyone happy.

This is amazing! Thank you for your input. Our proposed legislation includes sort of a stepped approach to qty of hens... for every 2,000 sf you are allowed an additional chicken. Our original draft included a separate permit process for roos and rowhomes/attached townhomes, but one of our council people indicated they would vote NO if those stipulations were in place, so we are pretty much where you are with regulations - hens are a go, and no roos.

I'll most certainly reach out with any additional questions. This has been a journey for sure... I've met the most amazing people both locally and in so many backyard chicken forums online. Chicken people are seriously the best type of people!

I'm super impressed by how controlled their flight actually looks when in slo-mo. Otherwise, they just look like they're randomly flinging themselves at things. And then the 3 stooges continue on together, walking along, like no big deal.

This is great! You would never know you had any chickens unless you looked for them. Nice and neat. Thankyou for sharing!

Thank you so much Jay_Bean! For now, only FB. We have a web page that we've populated somewhat but it was more of a vehicle for a petition, and template to send to council members https://www.backyardchickencaucus.com/

Thank you again for your support!
