Provo City is allowing residents the raise chickens within city limits, and it doesn’t just have to be on a farm. Not everyone is in agreement on the topic either.
In my next Mormon Times article, I share my own story with a “chick” close to home. The article will be out Monday, May 4.
Oh, the silly things that happen in Utah.

I have to admit, I could not suppress the chcukles while I was reading your article.
Your poor mom. She must spend at least a part of her days rolling her eyes at the antics of her boys; and wondering what you’ll come up with next.
I can only imagine. =~)
OK – what an entertaining article!!! Of course, you had me and probably some others thinking female kind of chick. That was just so clever for the girl to send a reply back via a chick. I like that!!! Thanks for sharing, I look forward to Mondays and your next article. I was speaking about your writings last night to some misssionaries who have been teaching us, mostly with my hubby because I am usually at work. One of them is getting relocated and Gill is really bummed about that. He is a very nice guy from Lehi, UT
I think that is hilarious! I can just see it now… neighbours taking their chickens for walks, on leashes of course, while waving kindly to one another. Ah, the simple laid back life. Who wouldn’t want a chicken for a pet in the middle of the city? Do they come house trained?
I guess it’s ok to have chickens in the city, as long as they are properly cared for; and maybe even extra care to keep the chicken coop clean and tidy.
Look on the bright side, it could make for some tasty dinners.
nothing about chickens here but how about posting new family picture your dad had on insider, on your facebook?
I don’t know whether or not it was legal, but in Los Angeles – where I grew up, people had chickens AND ROOSTERS in their yards a lot. It was loud and annoying…I don’t think I would be in favor of this, but maybe if it was chickens only and no roosters under any circumstances.
Why were they illegal in the first place??? I don’t understand, hope you can clear that up in your article. Lots of people over here keep chickens if they have a big enough yard. A woman brings in and sells the eggs her chickens lay. Free Range eggs always seem so much tastier…:)
Looking forward to your article.
