Hi, Amy, I was astonished to read this! Whatever happened to the traditions of self-sufficiency and independence that made America what it is today? And in Oregon of all places? And in these economic times, of all times? Here in the UK, people even keep chickens in London (including one lady who opens her garden to the public).
I wish you the very best of luck with your campaign. Best wishes, Victoria

I wish I could make it but my 2 year old would have to come with me and he’s in that “terrible two” stage – he’d make a terrible scene. Since duct tape isn’t an option, I’ll have to resort to making my voice heard on the internet and spreading the word.

Will you be attending the South Gateway NA meeting tomorrow evening?

I agree that now is the time to make your voice heard. Honestly, I’m surprised that this has become such a hot issue.

All cities ban roosters, they are loud and it “encourages” cock fighting. Not smelly at all – I edited my post to add a very informative packet the group pushing this put together, check it out!

I wonder if the-powers-that-be are opposing rooster noise. Hens will lay eggs without a rooster. Maybe they don’t know this. I would think the smell might be an issue but other than that, why not?

Good luck with your meetings.
