keep my two chickens and two ducks in my back garden these are pets

containers and the area they live in is keeped clean thanks for your
help.


I depends whether the house is your own or not. If you live in a council
house, yes, normally you will have to get permission from the council.
If
privately rented, the landlord.
If the house is your own you need to get sight of the deeds (ask your
mortgage lender if you still have outstanding mortgage to pay.) Some
deeds
specifically exclude permission to keep poultry and/or pigeons,
especially
newer houses without much ground.

I am lucky as I have an older house (30's) and my deeds state that I can
even keep pigs, as long as they are 75 yards from the road, which I could
comply with easily if I wanted pigs.
This is not to say that I am allowed to do "anything." I am forbidden
from
being "a fellmonger, a manure merchant or a tallow candle maker by way of
business."

Tina hi tina my house is mine its not council would i beable to ask over
the phone as the solicitor has the deeds thanks fro your help from lisa.

Have you only recently bought the house then? If not, the solicitor should
not have the deeds, they should be with the bank/building who financed your
mortgage. They keep them in strongroom safes and usually charge a small fee
for having to get them out as it seems to be a bit of trouble.
I had occasion to need some info from mine once to establish whether
responsibility for fencing a particular side lay with me or the neighbour.
I told them what I needed and they photocopied the relevant part and sent it
to me.
I would start by phoning your lender.
