I live in ormond by the sea and have had 4 red star hens for quite a while, we too are from the burgh. Being in unincorporated volusia county you may have three hens and no roosters. The flock limits seems to be related to agricultural zoning restrictions, like people who keep a horse and call it a ranch for tax purposes. Hens don't bark, roam the neighborhood, add to landfills, or carry fleas. My hens remove thatch and add nitrogen to my lawn, eat insects and get up at dawn to make me breakfast. The neighbours love them and our homeowners association approves.
