Advice, Info for Herndon Residents Who Want to Keep Backyard Chickens
Members of the Herndon Environmental Network (HEN!) share knowledge of hen-keeping and encourage residents to write to Town Councilmembers.
Written by members of the Herndon Environmental Network
The Town of Herndon presently allows one pet hen per single-family detached residence. The Herndon Environmental Network supports amending the town ordinance to allow pet chickens in "micro-flocks" of up to six hens, because chickens are social animals. The Town Council is considering changing the ordinance, and we need your help!"
Want to learn more about backyard hens? Take a look at the attached PDF packet for more information, as well as where you can write to our Town Councilmembers to support the changing of the ordinance.
