This is from the Duncan city code. Sorry, Grace. Maybe Marlow has a better deal for you...
=============================================================================
A. Unless zoned A-1, A-2 or grandfathered for such conditions prior to the adoption of this part, keeping of domestic birds, fowl or bees shall be permitted only by use on review as defined in the land development code1. Regardless of zoning or grandfathered status, details in subsections B through I of this section are conditions for keeping of such animals within the Duncan city limits.
B. It is unlawful for any person to construct or maintain a poultry house or pen for the raising or keeping of chickens or any other poultry within one hundred feet (100') of any house or building used for residential purposes, situated on any adjoining lot or plot of ground, in the city.
C. It is the duty of the owner or person in charge of such domestic fowl to keep the same securely confined in a suitable pen, coop, building, or enclosure. Any such fowl found running at large shall be deemed prima facie evidence that the owner or person in charge has failed to comply with the provisions of this section.
D. The keeping of more than three (3) chickens within a recognized residential subdivision on a lot of less than one acre is prohibited.
E. The keeping of roosters, geese, guinea fowl, ducks, turkeys, or peacocks is similarly prohibited in recognized residential subdivisions on lots of less than two (2) acres.
F. Any chicken or fowl or avian kept in a residential subdivision shall be maintained as follows:
1. All chickens, or other fowl, or avians shall be confined to the owner's property at all times.
2. All enclosures shall be cleaned regularly to prevent an accumulation of food, fecal matter, or nesting material from creating a nuisance or unsanitary condition due to odor, vermin, debris, or decay.
G. Every keeper of domestic birds or fowl shall confine the same in an enclosure sufficient to prevent their being at large and shall provide a shelter area of sufficient size to be conducive to good sanitation practices, and shall provide adequate sanitary drainage for the shelter or area.
H. The housing and keeping of fowl, domestic birds or bees shall be in such a manner as not to create a nuisance. Owners of fowl, domestic birds or bees will be held responsible and liable for any damages they cause within the city.
