Legally chickens are fowl. Like if you called them dogs or cats, it doesn't change the fact that they're fowl.
Whether or not you'll get reported is another matter - depends on your relationship with neighbors I suppose. But even if you only want hens, don't assume they're quiet - we live on acreage and I can hear my hens from a few lots over. So that might be quite a few neighbors you need to bribe, depending on lot size.
