Looking at the City Ordinances, there is no place in the city code stating the limitations of the number of fowl one can keep. Might want to check with the Commissioner of Health...
70.10. Permit required. (a) No person shall anywhere in the city keep, harbor, or maintain care, custody, or control over any small animal such as a rabbit, or any fowl such as a chicken, turkey, or duck, or any pigeon, without obtaining a permit therefor issued by the commissioner of health. (b) The commissioner of health may grant any permit pursuant to this section after the applicant has sought the written consent of at least eighty (80) percent of the occupants of the several descriptions of real estate situated within one hundred (100) feet of the applicant's real estate. Such written consent shall be required on the first and initial application and as often thereafter as the commissioner of health deems necessary. (c) No permit shall be granted to keep any animal, fowl, or pigeon within a dwelling unit or part thereof, nor on any real estate which contains three (3) or more dwelling units. (d) This section shall not apply to dogs or cats nor to veterinarians or licensed pet shops or licensed kennels.

Don't feed the troll! Ignore obvious flame-bait. 2. If you don't like what's being discussed here, don't complain - change the subject (Mpls-specific, of course.) ________________________________ Minneapolis Issues Forum - A City-focused Civic Discussion - Mn E-Democracy Post messages to: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Subscribe, Unsubscribe, Digest, and more: http://e-democracy.org/mpls
