Afternoon, I live on 4 acres in Red Bank and I was wondering if its ok to raise a small flock of chickens (8 hens). There are two other properties on my street that raise chickens and a cop frequently runs radar right next to one of the houses. I searched this site and came up empty handed. I figured I'd ask you guys before I put a call into city hall Thanks in advance!

I think you need two acres to raise chickens in Red Bank. You ought to be fine. Besides, without a rooster how will anyone know?

Thanks for the response. I emailed the city manager asking and he/she never got back to me.... so i'll just go ahead with it. So I went back to the city ordinances looking for language on raising goats and I cant same to find anything. Anyone know the regulations on small hobby farms? We would like to have 2 goats. Thx!

As I understood it, Red Bank doesn't allow them in residentially zoned neighborhoods, but I'm not sure.

Have you thought about being considerate enough of your property’s neighbors to ask them if they would mind?

My one neighbor does not mind and looks forward to fresh eggs. The rest of our 4 acres of property boarders 20+ acres of vacant land and he could care less, but thanks for the concern LimitedRecourse. Good day.

I know that in the city limits, if you have more than 8 animals, you have to have a kennel permit.
