According to my research, chickens are legal in Cincinnati as long as they keep quiet and don't smell bad:
I will forward that link to the people on my neighborhood e-mail list, because it has been flying fast and furious for the past couple of months with chicken-related legal problems. They claim there is an ordinance that stipulates a minimum size of yard and that chickens are "for agriculture use only" (I guess that means back yards aren't to be used for agriculture? perhaps it's time to xeriscape?).
So maybe that link will help them. I honestly don't know what "ordinance" they mean, because I haven't looked into it, what with not owning or wanting to own chickens. But if my neighbors can keep their chickens, that would be cool.
At one point my next door neighbors had a chicken ... a rooster, to be exact. I think it became dinner one night. Of course, these same neighbors had four children - and the chicken - in a one-bedroom apartment.
That's a problem in any world.
Many worlds would be more likely to eat or ignore the cat than have it on their shoulder.

Then they need to give you a raise. If no one else can/will work with her, you need hazard pay.

An astounding number of my friends suddenly have chickens.
But I live in rural Arizona, so...
I am not a fan of urban chickens (and they are very popular in the towns where I've lived the past 10+ years) since my experience with them has been that they are dirty, smelly, stupid and mean. YChickenMV.
They are legal in my town so long as the coop is 100 feet from any other structure. There are a number of them that roam the neighborhood, often ending up in one of the parks, which is thus often littered with chicken shit. Not. A. Fan.
We use a lot of eggs, but not enough to justify keeping chickens. Unless we were going to eat the chickens, too, and I'm really not up for home slaughtering and plucking. So.
