Chickens & Livestock: Corona vs Temecula

Corona generally restricts chickens and livestock to agricultural and equestrian zones, with limited allowances in some single-family residential zones depending on lot size. Roosters are typically prohibited in residential areas due to noise. Coops must meet setback requirements from property lines and dwellings. Sanitation is enforced by Code Enforcement and Riverside County Animal Services.

Temecula generally prohibits chickens and livestock on standard residential lots, but allows them on parcels zoned Hillside Residential, Very Low Density Residential, and Wine Country/Equestrian where lot sizes are 1+ acre. Roosters are typically prohibited or restricted due to noise. Coops and corrals must meet setbacks, and Wine Country parcels under Riverside County rules allow horses and other livestock.
