Firstly, depending on where you live, it may very well be illegal for you to keep chikens in your apartment. Secondly, the landlord can tell you to do anything, as the apartment belongs to him. Is this fair? Maybe not, but is it fair to your neigbors to keep chikens next door to them? |

You keep chickens in your apartment? Gross. But yes, he/she owns the place and it's kinda like living with your parents except your paying the landlord to tell you how to live. If he says they gotta go you should just get rid of them and stay on his good side rather than screwing things up for yourself. If you don't want to get rid of them move to a place with a yard that allows pets and keep them outside. |

You cant keep farm animals in an apartment dweling. Most Cities have rules about that. |

It looks like the answers are consistent in stating that the issue is up to the landlord's discretion and any applicable laws/regulations. But I wish you luck with the chickens. If you need to find a new home for them you might check with a local humane society, if no luck you might try the website of the ASPCA, HSUS, PETA, or other animal welfare organization. |

Chickens are considered LIVESTOCK and are illegal to keep within most citylimits.
Yes, your landlord has the right to make you get rid of them. Look at your lease! |

Chickens are not considered domestic pets so even if you are allowed to have pets a chicken is not acceptable. |

Yes, it is fair. Chickens stink and are extremely messy. Remember, someone is going to have to live in that place when you eventually leave. Sorry. |
|

this is harder than it looks.

completely fair. Check out the pet policy of your complex. That should answer your question. most places only allow cats or dog... a majority dont even allow pets. I would do what he says ussually there is a major fine involved with un-auth pets. |

You didn't say if they are for laying eggs or if they're for frying. You need to provide more information for us to be able to help you. |

Possibly, but most breeds are protected by the Truth in Poultry Act. |

No that's not fair - He should not only let you have your apartment free, he should give you more chickins to keep in it, plus 3 or 4 turkeys. |
