How to look after baby chicks
Check local regulations on keeping chickens.
Most communities permit keeping chickens, but there may be zoning codes you should follow. You may need to get a permit or a signed agreement from neighbors before you're allowed to set up a coop.

OPT:
-- Check with your local area a stock-owned chicken coop is not allowed in a community community where there is no neighbors. There are some exceptions to this rule.
-- Make sure the local regulations are closely followed and that your chickens are in compliance with local regulations. Check local bird clubs such as beekeepers and pet stores for information as to what you can and cannot do in your yard.
-- You may be required to purchase a lot of chickens if they don't meet local rules. Some communities may require you to provide a certain number of chickens in a certain fashion-around 1-4 in every 4-6 months.
-- Each state and local municipality have slightly different codes, so be sure to check up on the laws in your area before making any purchases. Check your local homeowner association rules.
