Are chickens considered livestock or pets? how about goats?

Question

I am about to move into a house and signed the lease agreement with my 2 other roommates. We wanted to have chickens in our back yeard, and possibly a goat. The lease ageement says no pets. So, could we have chickens? goats? dont they fall under livestock therefore legally not pets. We hate the landlords already due to their extreme bias towards us college boys--they raised the rent on us etc. i really want chickens for eggs, haha. could we get around it

Answer 1

Both chickens and goats are considered livestock. Neither of these animals are allowed within city limits and neither are considered pets but there aren't many landlord who would let you own either animal unless you are zoned in a rural area. Good luck but I don't think you can get around this.

Answer 2

livestock are sold pets are to keep

Answer 3

Goats and chickens are considered livestock.

Answer 4
