Hi, Oak Park readers,
Please keep an eye out for a chicken:
Our chicken got out and we have not seen our Red Jewels since 4/17, Thursday noon. We live around 1100 South block of Grove Ave. Thank you!
If you see her, message me, and I”ll connect you to the owners.
Thanks!

Chicken woman I am a resident of unincorporated palos heights, cook county. I am very interested in raising chickens and am having a difficult time finding what the lea falsity of me doing this is. Phone calls find people that are lacking of information. Can you point me in the proper direction?
Thanks Gene

Hi, Gene –
It’s my understanding that unincorporated areas revert to county laws. Yes, phone calls often produce misinformation. You can look up the code on this site: http://www.municode.com/
