It's too bad Cambridge bans chickens.
It's not actually written anywhere in the law. Their reasoning: anything not explicitly allowed under zoning is banned, and nobody keeps chickens in Cambridge, so therefore they're banned.
It's a good way to stifle non-mainstream behavior and innovative ideas, things you'd think Cambridge would support. And virtually all
the other cities and towns around here allow chickens, including Boston.
Never mind the chickens that do exist in Cambridgeport. They get an exception since they've been around since before this law was made up.
