Chickens & Livestock

O'Fallon Code Section 94.01(M) lists 'any swine, goats, horses or chickens' as a nuisance animal when kept inside city limits unless on land zoned Agricultural District or Rural Residential District. Backyard chickens are therefore prohibited in standard single-family residential zones. Existing-owner exceptions and city-council reform proposals have been discussed but the prohibition remains in force.
