Raise Chickens in the City with This Urban Chicken Coop

With more and more people wanting a piece of the urban farming pie, more options for making it happen are starting to become available. The latest is HØNS, a chicken cage designed by Anker Bak (we first spotted him at the Stockholm Furniture Fair) that lets you raise happy chickens right on your porch or balcony so you can have fresh eggs right in the city.
