There have been chickens in our neighborhood in Springville for the more than 30 years since I have lived here. Some of the neighbors never lost their animals rights. I find the chickens to be unimposing; not as the dogs, which sometimes smell bad, bark a lot, and still escape and do their duty on the neighbors' lawns. The chickens are welcome, in my opinion.

Great. Living in a beat up van w/ my "collection" is getting tiresome as are the omelets.
