The city of Sacramento is considering legalizing egg-laying chickens

The tax on each egg will be 10 dollars. Thank you citizen.

Is anyone else sick of these headlines? They're not even puns. They're some terrible awful mishmash of boring and redundant language.

This crap just hard boils my blood.

Yeah. It's like they poach the headlines from other people anyway.

Verdugo said he was not the neighbor who complained to the county, but would like to see the chickens go.

Yeah right. I guess the kids know where to throw those eggs they're gathering in the morning.

Whenever I see one I always imagine there is some half-retarted Mod like 'Loyd' from dumb and dumber who breaks out into a huge idiotic giggle fit whenever he see's one and then mashes down the 'approve' button.

"The law is the law."

Any time I hear or read that, it makes me want to dig into the local statutes and find out what laws the person who said/wrote it is breaking, and then file a complaint.

That was my first reaction. I wish I had the cash to pay some cops to follow him 24/7 for about a week.

Move five miles over to West Sac and you can have your chickens and eat them too.

Regardless, her neighbor is a jerk.
 
2010-01-11 04:12:32 PM
Hmmm...if only there were something that could be thrown at the neighbor's house or car to show the disdain with which they are regarded...

WOah! First for me. Their place to eat was in Old Fair Oaks. A nice place actually. Wasn't incredible but nice. I knew the owners kind of well, more a friend of a friend.

How insane to read about them here.

I called the county to check on the size of my lot before I got chickens. The gubment employee gave me a ration of sh*t for having to go through the trouble. I said "you sure would do it if I was a neighbor looking to complain".

//Lot is only 8800, needed 10,000.
///No chickens for me.
///YET

But another neighbor, Angel Verdugo, finds the clucking and coos in the morning bothersome.

"They're not roosters, but I can hear them inside my house with the doors and windows closed," said Verdugo, a project analyst for a technology company. "During the week, we're not home, but on the weekend, when we want to sleep in, we have definitely heard them and that's when they become annoying."


I wonder what other nosies Angel Douchedugo can hear from inside his house. cars going by? planes? dogs?

Not defending anybody, but have you ever lived next to a chicken coup? regardless of how small it is?

Chicken owners will be the first to tell you what perfect angles their birds are, but the chicken owner is usualy oblivious to the taxing behaivor chickens can engage in......

usualy it comes down to two things..... Noise, And Stink, If the owner can keep the birds on their property, and can manage to keep the distrubance to a legal level, then folks should be allowed to have chickens..... But if folks act anything like urban chicken owners here in Portland, the birds are likely crapping on the neighbors Car and house, as well as stinking up the place.

While I like the idea of having a few birds, usualy the folks who think the same way and live in the city are self absorbed Nitwits, who will always point their finger at the guy next door who just "Dose not Get it".

Yeah, in reality they tend to be pretty obtuse.

your just being picky. *sic*


I can't help but cringe either...so few Americans are fluent in their own language....to, too, two, your, you're, there, their, they're, its, it's, who's whose, then, than....
granted it could be just a typo, I'm sure I've farked up once or twice here and there and not caught it in time, but it's not just common, it's typical of most people on the intertubes.

What gets me is that most of these people made far better grades in high school than I did and later went on to go to college.

Why isn't there ever an ordinance requiring nosy, busy-body neighbors to move? Mind your own business or relocate within 15 days.

The same could be said for people with multiple outdoor dogs and cats. Anyone who can't properly take care of their animals, regardless of species, especially in an urban landscape doesn't need to have them. Period.

Dogs on the whole make more noise than any other urban animal, and strangely people are okay with that. I honestly don't understand how some people aren't tempted to smother their own dog who's been barking for the past 9 hours straight, and its closer to their home than mine.

Or the people who let their dogs run amok, despite leash laws, and I'm spending my valuable time picking up their dogs' feces from my property. Or hell, the people who blatantly walk their dog past my yard, let said dog defecate, then both walk off into the sunset with the massive turd left behind.

Cats are a whole other monster. They gut the environment of the native birds and other small wildlife, they breed faster than I think rats do, and their urine smell cannot be removed without burning the premises down.

They muddy your car up with their paw prints, they scratch your paint trying to scramble up on a full sized truck hood, they seek warmth under your vehicle hood and you suddenly have a $500 bill to clean "cat goo" out of your engine compartment.

And yet 4 chickens are a problem?

/lives 30ft from a chicken coop
//has 46 chickens
///enjoys fresh eggs and wholesome, flavourful meat
////smells nothing and hears dogs a mile away more than the chickens clucking in the backyard
