Lawmakers cry foul over restrictions.🐔🐔🐔
Rep. Briscoe Cain, R-Deer Park, and Rep. Philip Cortez, D-San Antonio, filed bills that would prevent cities and homeowners associations from restricting people in houses from having six or fewer chickens or domestic fowl. Cain’s bill, House Bill 1191, is dubbed the Chicken Freedom Act.A similar bill failed in the last legislative session, but rising egg prices have renewed interest.
Still, San Antonio residents likely wouldn’t be affected if one of the bills passed unless they have restrictions under their HOA. Each municipality in Texas sets the number of domestic fowl a family may keep on their property. According to the City of San Antonio’s animal ordinance, eight domestic fowl, including one rooster, are allowed at a local residence. Domestic fowl must be housed in a coop and run that is 24 square feet or features 6 feet of space for each fowl, whichever is bigger.
