freespiritbutterfly Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 (edited) Helloooo everyone, first of all I'm sorry I haven't been on in a while. Hectic chaos I think is how I will describe this last year. Anyway my random question is this... Did anyone in Buckinghamshire have to ask the council before they got any chickens? I am newly engaged you see and my other half lives in buckinghamshire so I am going to have to move down there however I still want to have my chooks sooo I was just wondering if i needed permission or something? I'll ask any neighbours if they have any issues though just in case. Many thanks everyone. Edited September 13, 2011 by Guest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackian Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 I live in Flackwell Heath Bucks and I live in a terrace house with a small garden ..I have 3 lovely chickens and no we did not need permission. The only thing was NO cockerals in a residential area...I wonder why I don't know if it changes from town to town but I don't think so.What part of Bucks Good luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jackian Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 I am about 10 miles from you and Princes Risborough is very country side. A very nice area.I am sure you will not have a problem , it has a lot of farm land. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chickenopolis Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 We live about 8 miles out of Aylesbury, but still covered by Aylesbury Vale District Council. I rang the council enviromental office to check that keeping chooks was OK - and was told that as long as I don't start a business with them and just have "backyard chooks" then the council don't care. Obviously consideration needs to be given to your neighbours and that is why we haven't bought a cockerel yet!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
