no chickens... lol.
actually radioactive ores are considered " unimportant quanities of radioactive materials" and are legal to own. they are usually only slightly radioactive. I keep my hotter specimens in a concrete container in my shed. This is actually quite anal as they are really quite harmless... unless you were to make a fireplace out of the things or mabe eat them for lunch.
