Hi! Welcome to BYC! that is sooo weird that there'd be restrictions out in that kind of area. I live in a city that didn't allow chickens until 2020; even though people still did it anyway
I hope you're able to find a way to have chickens without any issues.

Hello and Welcome to BYC. Glad to have you with us in this poultry loving community. Check for deed restrictions. We left TN for AL to get a way from so many deed restrictions prohibiting farm animals (except horses) out in the rural areas. When the farmer sold his land as small tracts he put in the deed restrictions to make the land more valuable for some city folks that wanted to live in the country and not be bothered with country sounds. Sad. Wishing you well.

That is very interesting! And I agree with it being sad.

Hiya, and welcome to BYC!! I hope you can figure out how you can have chickens there. It's odd if you're rural, what's the issue. Sometimes those small-town "councils" are full of ignorant and/or stubborn people.

Welcome. I agree with @Debbie292d. Perhaps, no one has ever challenged this ridiculous rule.
