UPDATE: Chicago Pet Chicken Ban Postponed

The proposed urban chicken ban in the City of Chicago has been tabled.  The city council had been slated to vote on the propsed ban today.  Aldermen are taking the proposal back to committee to further investigate before casting their votes. 

On a positive note, this issue is getting press coverage - even from ABC News nationally and the AP.
