Anyone from Greenville SC area?

[_chickengirl1]

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, maybe we can be friends

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. I’d have to move (as getting rid of them is not an option). Also, if I ever adopt another dog.. just worried….
