This past week was highlighted by the meeting at the Zoning Commission on my petition to legalize chickens in town. The Commission has agreed with me unanimously that chickens ought to be permitted as a matter of right in residential neighborhoods! They are setting up a committee, which will include farming, agriculture and poultry experts, to craft language to amend the zoning regulations. BIG win for backyard chickens!! My argument to the Zoning Commission was taped live and can be viewed here.

In reference to This Frizzled Polish Crested chick still needs a name…. I am thinking Moulan Rouge? Don't know why but she just struck me as a fancy pants kinda chick. A little bit flashy.
I have a suggestion for a name for your Frizzled Polish Crested chick. How about " Hedda Hopper"……And would love to win the package
