If it's backyard chickens, I believe so. I think they count as both livestock and pets.Also does livestock qualify as "pets"?
"Specific laws may vary based on state, but generally speaking, it's illegal to withhold food, water, shelter, veterinary care, or a clean and safe living environment from an animal under your care. All of these would be considered a form of animal abuse or, more specifically, neglect. It's also typically illegal to purposefully inflict any type of harm on an animal. This is considered physical animal abuse and is often called animal cruelty."
As of now, these people are committing a felony with animal neglect. Is there a way you could get your husband to call Animal Control? You could also talk to your other neighbors and let them know of the situation so it wouldn't be so obviously you.
