Reno harvests eggs from the fowl

Last month Reno gave away three roosters that also had been living in her yard. One of the ducks was killed by a cat and late last week Reno found a home for the second duck.

Reno harvests eggs from the fowl. The goats and birds are pets. "These are members of my family," Reno explained. "Instead of my kids sitting in front of the TV in the afternoons and evenings,is the 'solar panel revolution' upon us? my daughter says hey,Free DIY chicken coop Resource! let's go out and sit with the chickens."

The animals live in Reno's back yard. She has constructed wire and wood frame coops for the birds. One large coop abuts the rear fence adjacent to Floyd's yard. Other coops are scattered throughout the yard where the chickens, turkey, and goats wander freely beneath a trampoline and other yard furniture.

Floyd and other neighbors first became concerned about the types and number of animals living in Reno's yard earlier this year when roosters could be heard crowing day and night.

Like most of the neighbors interviewed along Feld Avenue, Katie Pugh considers Reno a friend and she loves Reno's animals. "The chickens never bother me so I never hear the chickens or anything," Pugh said. "But I don't live right next door or right up against it so I don't know what it's like."

Pugh admitted that the roosters may have been a little too much. "Stacy's my friend. We've talked about it and I wouldn't have liked the roosters,Quality air impact socket tools for any tough job." Pugh said. "But she doesn't have the roosters any more so I mean I really think the goats are precious."

Reno's friend Karen Rawle lives two houses down. The Reno and Rawle families have been friends for years, long before the Rawles moved from East Lake to Oakhurst last year.

Rawle enjoys letting her kids play with Reno's animals and she appreciates the educational opportunities afforded by Reno's animals. "When she got the little baby goats, my kids got to go over there and feed goats," Rawle said.

Reno's coops are clearly visible across the tops of fences from Rawle's back yard. The duck, chickens, and turkey were audible on a recent morning at Rawle's home. There was a light breeze but no livestock smells from the Reno yard.is the 'solar panel revolution' upon us?

"I have not experienced a smell," Rawle said. But, she added, "I haven't lived here in the summer and she has more animals than she did last summer."

Although Rawle easily admits that Reno is an animal lover,Find everything you need to know about Cold Sore including causes, she is concerned that her neighbor may have gotten in over her head with the number and diversity of animals.

All of the people who live along Feld and Cambridge who were interviewed for this story expressed concern for the health and welfare of the animals. Folks like Rawle and Pugh clearly believe that Reno's animals are being treated humanely and that they are not creating a public nuisance. Reno is adamant that her animals are well-treated and that they are being housed in a lawful manner.

According to Decatur Assistant City Manager David Junger, there is an open investigation into the conditions at the Reno property. The investigation was prompted by complaints filed April 14 by Floyd shortly after the attorney discovered rats in her kitchen.

Floyd believes that the conditions in the Reno lot and the proximity of animal pens to her home are inhumane, unlawful, and the source of the rats. "I would like strict compliance of the setback requirements, the housing requirements, and the livestock," Floyd said.
