The District of Sicamous is reminding residents about its regulations on urban hens in its “Did You Know?” bylaw series.
According to Zoning Bylaw No. 110, 2024, urban hens may be kept in all zones outside the Agricultural Land Reserve provided that no roosters are kept, hens are provided with a coop, hens do not run at large beyond parcel lines and there are no more than four hens per parcel.
The district said it is sharing the information to answer frequently asked questions and provide guidance on community standards.
