I got a knock on the door last night from the president of our so called association. I live in the county in fact our neighbors across the street have cattle and horses. We bought and paid for this house 2 yrs ago, and before we did I read and made sure that we could have farm animals. Our covenant states that we are allowed two large animals meaning horse, cow, llama, or emu.OR 4 small animals meaning calves, sheep, goats. Then the covenant goes on to say "Poultry, domestic ratite, and small animals will also be allowed, but in all cases must be adequately cared for and must be confined in a satisfactory manner to the owner's property." I can't find anywhere in that, that I am only allowed a certain amount of poultry, but my president is stating that it says i can have 6 animals total. I would think that if the poultry was included in the small animals that it would have listed them, but it doesn't. My neighbors are complaining that my birds smell and that the wind blows it right to their house, well they knew when they bought the house behind me that I had chickens and there house sits right behind my pasture. I am very clean with my birds, but I do compost the manure. I started raising batches of 50 meat birds in the warmer months. What rights do I have??? I am willing to fight this as long as I can win. I moved to the country so that I could have chickens and now I am being told I can only have six and that I am not allowed to raise chicken to feed my family of 7. Please help...
