Using egg substitutes to help your bottom line

The Village of Keremeos has adopted a bylaw allowing urban hens in low-density residential properties to help reduce egg costs and improve food security in the village.
According to the Village of Keremeos, hens provide an inexpensive source of protein, natural fertilizer, and pest control benefits.
The new bylaw outlines requirements for keeping hens, including coop size and permits, and limits to five hens per property without roosters.
Residents are required to obtain a no-cost Backyard Hen License and a BC Poultry Premise Identification Number to keep chickens.
