Family ordered to get rid of pet chickens

HOLLYWOOD, Fla., May 20 (UPI) -- A Hollywood, Fla., magistrate has ordered a family with seven pet chickens to move the birds out of the city by the end of the summer.
Magistrate Paul Gifford said in his ruling Tuesday that he personally owned chickens until he was a teen, but current regulations state that owning chickens inside the city limits is a code violation, the South Florida Sun-Sentinel reported Wednesday.

Gifford gave the Kohn family until Aug. 17 to find a new home for the fowl.

However, Steve Kohn said he is willing to take the case to the Supreme Court if necessary.

Just tell the judge the code is for the birds.
