Re: How is your day going?

(Anonymous) 2019-07-27 11:37 pm (UTC)(link)
I’m getting a lot of cleaning and yardwork done, but since it’s Satan’s asscrack hot/humid out, and my main motivation is panic/anxiety, I’m not enjoying myself.

I mentioned the other day that someone called the local code enforcement guys on me because one of my hens got out, and they’re sending someone out to check that their coop is spacious and predator proof enough/how the hen escaped. Which, fine. I still don’t know which hen it was, because they’re all accounted for, but there’s nothing wrong with the coop and run.

There’s plenty wrong with the house, though. I inherited it from my mom, who got it from my dad when they divorced, who thought duct tape could fix everything and was once fined $30k for not fixing a bunch of not to code stuff. Both of them made more not to code additions to an already not to code house. I just hope the zoning guy is there strictly to check on the henhouse.

And today,!while double checking spacing requirements, I found out that despite having more than adequate coop/run space, I may have way too many hens. Without following complicated guidelines for property line setbacks, local laws only allow five hens. I have thirteen. The max number of hens allowed is 25 if they’re kept 50 feet from all residential buildings, and 15 hens are allowed if kept 15 feet from property lines or required setbacks, whichever is greater.

My lot is 50’x150’, so if I explain to the zoning guy that I’ll be happy to move the run over (it’s currently right up against the property line), I think I might get off with a warning? Idk. I can’t figure out the “required setbacks” thing.

My aunt initially said she’d take eight of the hens in for the day, but now she says I should just take my lumps and get rid of some, if it comes to that. If I could be sure they’d go to good homes, I would, but every single person who initially said they’d take some when I first got them backed out this time. And I’m wary of giving them away no strings attached because I’ve had people kill and eat hens that I’d hand raised as pets before.
