Carleton Place residents can now apply to keep hens in their backyard.
Carleton Place Town Council has approved a bylaw to permit and regulate backyard hens within town boundaries.
The initial application fee is $100 per household, with an annual renewal fee of $30.
Roosters are not permitted.
The Animal Control bylaw in Carleton Place has also been amended to factor in the change.
