Hi there,
My name is Jen and I am new to the group. Howdy, and thanks for being such a great resource. I have a coop and 7 chickens. My coop is a little over 4 feet by a little over 6 feet with 5 nesting boxes that extend from the coop (not part of the 4'X6' area in the main coop). There is an attached 200 square foot chicken (dog) run with a shade cover. The chickens also get a 3-4 hours of free range time as well on a 1/2 acre (due to jockeying dogs and chickens). Anyway, do you think I could add 3 more chickens to that size of coop or should I just be content with what I have? I have to say, chickens are a blast!
Thanks for your insights,
Jen
