At a recent council meeting there was a resident asking for help - too many roosters crowing at all hours disturbing the peace and quiet on Upper Matecumbe.  

It is believed there are about 5 - 6 roosters, several near Village Hall and the ones on Upper Matecumbe that were the object of the original crowing complaint at Jerome Ave.

Vice Mayor Mahoney to the rescue! She has located a farmer in Homestead who will provide a home for the roosters and someone who will transport them to the new home.  Without the roosters, the number of chickens can be stabilized.

Next - homes for the hens.  Anyone have a chicken coop that wants a couple extra hens?  Or you can get a chicken coop delivered by Amazon for a little more than $100.  It is believed the chickens at Founders Park were raised in a coop and will produce eggs as much as 2 per hen per day! A pretty good investment.  If interested, send Sharon an email at sharellen@netzero.net.

Remember - if you do not want to attract chickens to your neighborhood - do not feed wild chickens.  It is against the law!
