Not yet raising poultry

[Galaxy_rules]

I bought 3 acres in Crystal River and want to start raising chicks. I been looking around different websites for the ordinances for that area. Have not found anything helpful yet. How many chicks can I have? Where to find building codes? What do i need to keep my chicks safe from preditors? I am in my retirement phase, sort of. I have been woking thru this COVID epidemic as a nurse and I have given my years to the industry. I grew up on a farma s a child. I do alot of sewing and embroidery, Essential Oils, Herbs and gardening. Three acres is not much but enough to maintain and keep me busy at my age. I would appricite any info or advise anyone can offer here.
