Oh I wish it were just that! Everyone who wants chickens agree, “no roosters!” but the city still doesn’t want hens! I really think it’s all about ignorance and a bit of classism with the more elite councilmen and Salem residents who think chickens will bring property values down and turn everyone into Ma and Pa Redneck. Sigh.

I would bet it has more to do with the roosters than chickens. They are noisy!
