1. I don't think the county I live in permits it, which wouldn't necessarily stop me except that... 2. Hawks and foxes spend an inordinate amount of time in my backyard. 3. I'll get too attached to them and be heartbroken when one dies--- or is eaten by a yard-mate. 4. I'd want to eat not just the eggs but the chickens too and while I have no problem, in theory, with raising chickens for their meat, in practice I can't imagine hacking off one of those beautiful heads, draining the blood, cutting out the organs, chopping off their pretty feet, and plucking their feathers. THAT'S why I just can't raise chickens.
