I whole heartedly support your effort and would like to help in any way I can. Please contact me.
Why are hens allowed in the CITY of Brantford and not in Brant County? The major city of Vancouver with it large population adjacent to real wild life also allows back yard poultry. The reasons against are unfounded. I currently am moving from Arkell (Guelph) near a conservation area with regular coyote activity and not once have I had an issue in 9 years with coyotes bothering with my hens or endangering my dogs. With proper limits and rules, Brant county can move into the 21st century on micro farming. Chickens are peaceful, easy to care for providers of whole healthy food. They are an integral part of permaculture right in the smallest of backyards.

This experience was educational, delightful and fostered my love of the outdoors, birds, and organic food and gardening. It would be a shame to deny this experience to other children growing up in today's stress-filled and technologically focused world. Parents using common sense and can make owning and raising backyard chicken, ducks and geese a safe and wonderful experience for children and the entire family.

The public is generally uneducated about chickens and don't realize that if they are properly cared for, they produce far less noise, smell, and mess than neighbourhood cats and dogs. It is time to educate the public and give responsible chicken owners the freedom to source eggs from their own backyard.
