I wish I could raise chickens, but I don’t think we’re zoned for it.

Keep working on your City Council. Many of them are seeing the value of people keeping laying hens. No Roosters, of course. (Worthless, noisy, unproductive mouths at the trough that they are!) ;)

(Hens will lay eggs without fertilization; one every 72 hours or so. A true miracle.)

Raise quail, claim they’re songbirds.

:p

We aren't either, but I have seen people doing it.

It's against my Home Owners Assocition bylaws, but I'm raising them anyway! I have a pair of Old English Game birds and the rooster doesn't crow very loud. The hen laid her first egg yesterday.
