I live in a residential neighborhood. Can I have chickens in my backyard?

If you live in a single family residential neighborhood on a lot smaller than 30,000 square feet, you may keep up to six female chickens (hens). Please fill out the Backyard Hen Permit application online. The permit must be approved before you bring hens onto your property.
