WitchHazel Posted September 12, 2007 Share Posted September 12, 2007 Seen this? http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/manchester/6991258.stm Poor woman keeps ONE chicken, actually IN her house, and because neighbours have complained she has to either rehome chicken or be evicted herself. How spiteful of the neighbours! I can't see anywhere to comment on the story, I just hope the publicity does some good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cate in NZ Posted September 12, 2007 Share Posted September 12, 2007 Oh, dear, what a strange story. If the chicken really is living inside the house how the heck can the neighbours hear it clearly enough to constitute a noise disturbance . But the idea of keeping a chicken in the house sounds a bit worrying to me as well, not an ideal environment for it I'd say. It looks like a Pepperpot ................ do you think she's got an eglu? Don't some people have some very intolerant neighbours, I wonder how many noisy dogs live in the area? And as for the bird flu threat.......... well zero risk of that if the poor chicken's indoors all the time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubereglu Posted September 12, 2007 Share Posted September 12, 2007 I think that the whole thing is stupid and that she should keep the hen, after all there's probably a dog along that road which makes more noise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
