I currently have 9 hens and 2 roosters- a leghorn and a RIR. I also have 21 chicks. So I have been wondering if it would be easier to split the group in half when I add the younger ones and have 2 separate coops with a rooster in each. I allow my chickens to free range everyday, mostly all day. They even go out in the rain at times. So if I did 2 coops I would just alternate the days of letting them out to free range. Or should I just make my coop bigger and put them all in there?? My babies are in a brooder in the garage right now so I still have a while before adding them. I'm just trying to compile some opinions before drawing up my coop/s for my hubby to build. haha
