Medicine Bow Tables Chicken Code Talk

The Medicine Bow Town Council tabled a proposed code amendment Monday that would forbid residents from keeping chickens, ducks and other fowl within town limits. The Town Council is scheduled to discuss the issue at a special meeting at 6 p.m., Oct. 24. The proposed amendment came up after a resident asked the council for permission  to keep horses in town for a 4-H project. That person decided to keep the horses out of town, but the council discovered other residents were keeping chickens, ducks and other fowl in town. Heath said the proposed amendment allows people to keep a small amount of egg-laying fowl, but not something like 100 chickens.
