Chickens are increasingly recognized as a sustainable and educational addition to neighbourhoods, providing fresh eggs, fostering a connection to food sources, and promoting a sense of community. Currently the County of Brant is considering allowing chickens in residential areas. If the County of Brant allows chickens in residential areas, regulations and guidelines will be developed as part of next steps that balance the interests of residents and the community.

The County of Brant invites you to share your thoughts and opinions on the development of regulations and guidelines for having chickens in residential areas.
