Yeah Hesperia is allowed more than oak hills. I thought about changing till I notice that too.
Hi! I also live in oak hills, I moved here last summer. Yes, chickens are allowed. No, hesperia ordinances do not cover us. We are unincorporated so San Bernardino county regulations apply here. I'll try to find the link to the county stuff, but i think I remember it boils down to 1 chicken per 2000 sq ft. For 2.5 acre lot, that comes to about 55 chickens, but only two can be roosters.
I started my flock this spring and we have 10 currently although 7 are cockerels, so I will have a much smaller flock soon.

After looking at that again, it appears to limit any given variety of bird to 9 females and 2 males, so I guess 11 chickens are allowed? That seems really wierd, since in Hesperia proper you could have 150 chickens in the same amount of area (with correct zoning).
Hope I'm reading that wrong! I want a bigger flock!
