Hens allowed
Yes, but the coop must sit 50 ft from every neighbor's home, which many small lots cannot meet.
Pens must not cause odors, flies or rodents, and manure must be removed regularly. Texas Agriculture Code 251.0055 (HB 1750, 2023) may limit city rules on agricultural operations; it is untested for backyard hens.
