    HOA covenant that allows "caged birds"

    Hello! Wondering if anyone has ever dealt with an HOA that has a rule that states the following: No animals shall be kept, maintained or quartered on any lot except that cats, dogs, rabbits, hamsters or caged birds may be kept in reasonable numbers as pets for the pleasure of lot owners so long...

    Moving to a new house previously treated with lawn service, are my girls safe?

    I'm moving to a house in a few weeks and my plan was to have my hens free range in the backyard. I just found out from the previous owner that they have been using a quarterly lawn company that treats the yard for weeds and fertilizes it. :( How long are these chemicals in the ground? Will my...

    Are Restrictive Covenants enforceable and actively followed?

    I have been house hunting in South Carolina for a place for me and my three hens. Wondering if anyone else has run into issues with a restrictive covenant (not HOA) that was written when the neighborhood was built? Do you find these are closely followed or enforced?? I know I could try to fight...

    Anyone from Greenville SC area?

    Thanks, I’m very familiar with the area (my sister has lived there for 7 years so we’ve seen Simpsonville grow just like you said!). I’m working with an agent and have nixed all new builds/cookie cutter HOA neighborhoods. My main concern is the city ordinances…. :( Mauldin City hall is telling...

    Anyone from Greenville SC area?

    Well this is frustrating. I called City Hall and they are saying chickens are not allowed in Mauldin. I asked her where it said that in the ordinance and she couldn’t tell me. I’m looking at a copy of it and cannot find anything that says hens/roosters/poultry are not allowed. Has anyone dealt...

    Anyone from Greenville SC area?

    Thanks.. it says nothing about chickens but there is a four animal limit on residential properties. Super annoying. I have 3 chickens, 2 dogs, a cat and a tortoise. I’m technically “over” their limit. I’d hate to buy a house and then be told by the city that I’m not allowed to have my animals...

    Anyone from Greenville SC area?

    Currently looking to move to SC but am running into problems with checking city/county ordinances. Does anyone here live in Mauldin or Simpsonville SC? I’m trying to figure out if I’m allowed to have hens? I know Greenville allows up to 8. Any help would be appreciated! Also, if you’re local...

    I think my chicken is dying and I do not know why - please help!

    She has not started laying yet so not sure if she is egg bound or not. I have also not dewormed them - they are 6 months old.. Maybe I should?? I just dropped her at the vet so hopefully will have a diagnosis quickly. Thank you for your reply - I appreciate it a lot.

    I just dropped her off at the vet so she will get antibiotics if needed. I will update this thread once I get the vet's diagnosis.
