Fort Collins considers allowing backyard chickens
FORT COLLINS — The Fort Collins city council is considering changing the law to allow more people to keep chickens in their backyards.
Currently up to six chickens are allowed per household in three of the city’s zoning districts.
The proposal up for a vote Tuesday would allow them in all districts with some restrictions.
The chickens would have to be kept in a shelter safe from predators overnight.
The chickens would have to be kept at least 15 feet from neighboring properties.
Only hens would be allowed. Roosters are banned in Fort Collins because they are noisy.
That’s the case in other cities along the Front Range that allow people to have chickens.
