零下29度就要來了，鄉親們都習以為常了對不對？

This morning, -24C, feels like -34C

Business as usual, too cold to go outside, wear scarf if you don’t intend to compete with that guy at McDonald’s, who wears shorts and t-shirt today

我给娃报的ski camp也没去，可恨的是camp fortune也不取消今天的camp，他们不需要遵守政府对于孩子活动的室外温度规定吗？

早上看鸡还都活着，居然还下蛋。

真的？我想因为没处给它们过冬就没养, 它们能在室外过冬？啥品种有这样的hardness

我家乡比渥太华还冷，小时候妈妈养了好多鸡

早上八点照X光，原想走20分钟去，看看太冷了，还是开车去了，停完车走进imaging center，不到一分钟，冻透了

郊区，院子很大。

院子里有地方养鸡很容易。关键吃剩饭，剩菜。

Current Regulations (Ottawa)

• Prohibited in Urban/Suburban Zones: Residents in the city proper cannot keep chickens.
• Rural Exceptions: Chickens are permitted in certain rural or agricultural zones.
• Complaint-Based Enforcement: Bylaw enforcement is driven by complaints. If you keep chickens illegally and a neighbor complains, you will be required to rehome them.
• No Roosters: Even in areas where they are allowed, roosters are generally banned due to noise.

Why They Are Banned
The City of Ottawa has cited several reasons for restricting urban chickens:

• Health & Safety: Potential for attracting predators (coyotes, foxes) and vermin (rats).
• Nuisance: Noise, odour, and waste management issues.
• Animal Welfare: Concerns over the proper care and long-term commitment required for the birds.

Considerations for Rural Areas (Where Allowed)
If you live in a rural area that permits them:

• Winter Care: Chickens need a secure, draft-free, and insulated coop. You may need to use heat lamps (with caution) or heated waterers to prevent freezing.
• Predator Protection: The coop must be secure from wildlife.
• Lifespan: Hens can live for 5-10 years, though they stop laying regularly after a few years.

Surrounding Areas

• Gatineau: Allows laying hens in backyards with a licence (no roosters).
• Carleton Place: Allows up to six hens with a license.
• Russell Township: Allows up to three hens in urban areas and five in rural areas, pending approval.
