Chicago Holds Off on Pet-Chicken Ban
Chicago Holds Off on Pet-Chicken Ban
Wednesday, December 12, 2007 8:30 PM
CHICAGO -- The City Council had been scheduled to vote on a proposed ban on pet chickens Wednesday, but officials decided to sit on it a while longer.
The measure is headed back to a council committee so aldermen can further discuss what to do about the birds, which are part of a growing organic food trend in Chicago and other cities. Alderman Lona Lane said she didn't know the details about the issues holding up the vote.
Lane, who proposed the ban, said the problems with chickens include noise, smells, and droppings that are a feast for rodents. The city has received more than 700 complaints about chickens this year _ mostly about the racket from roosters.
Chicken lovers say the birds make great pets, don't take up much backyard space and provide tasty, nutritious eggs.
