For anyone interested or thinking about raising chickens in Louisville KY where is a link to the animal ordinance for our area.

The only reference to chickens is:
All crowing and non-crowing poultry must be kept on tracts or lots of at least half an acre or more. You can have one crowing and five non-crowing birds on less than half an acre.
Remember you do not need a rooster to get eggs and a good egg laying breed such as the Red Star can lay 300 per year. Not to mention the reduction in bug population and the free fertilizer you will get for your lawn or garden.
