chicken coop

[RIP_K52007]

I'm building a chicken coop, i was always told if the building was to house farm animals you did not need a building permit. Just making sure thats still true, I know we built them all over my dad's property and nobody ever said anything.

depends where you live and what local codes are there

kinda figured that would be the case. Afraid to go ask because if I have to have a permit they will be watching my yard. Maybe I'll get someone else to go ask for me haha

I don't think there is a penalty for not having, just have to buy one if they catch you. Usually if its not permanent, ( footings), and smaller than 100 sq. Ft permit isn't required

oh and my mom lives in flint township, and they just built a permanent coop and didnt have to get a permit, even tho the law says they do, my step dad went down there to get one and they laughed and said he was the first one to come in to get a permit for a chicken coop and told to just go build it. So IDK every place is different lol
