Keeping Chickens in Golden

Urban Homesteading has become very popular. Golden has been the home of homesteaders for years, as you can see here. Raising chickens is one great way to make your home and garden more sustainable. Raising your own chickens supplies you with tons of healthy, tasty eggs and compost for your garden. Chickens are natural bug hunters, so there is no need to use pesticides or other bug repellents. As your chickens search for these bugs in the soil, you get natural airation too! Chickens are a fun pet for adults and children alike.

Golden now has a great brochure that walks you through the permit process. Because you will be raising farm animals within city limits, the city of Golden recommends that you discuss your plans with your neighbors and keep in mind the natural predators in the area so you can keep your chickens safe. Visit the Jefferson County Planning and Zoningwebsite with any questions you may have.

HI Rick,

 

I love Barred Rocks.  I miss the days of raising chickens and gathering eggs on our little farm near Seattle.  A fresh egg is such a delight to bake with.

Hi Paul,

Fresh eggs are amazing! Chickens have become a great way to start homesteading in and out of the city. They don't require too much room and there are so many benefits! How long did you live near Seattle? We lived in Olympia for about 5 years and really loved the North West. We were in Kentucky in April and saw a few people with chickens in their yards.
