    Would a 4ft wide by 8 ft long big enough for a pair of bantams?

    Very nice job on the coops. Very handsome roosters too. I am a fan of a breed that I certainly cannot get in my current location since I would just HAVE to have a little rooster. It is on Cackles site as a Spangled OEGB. Super cute hens and that pic of a rooster is very colorful. (chicken math...

    Would a 4ft wide by 8 ft long big enough for a pair of bantams?

    I figured you had already planned on it since it seems like you have done your research. It is exciting getting new birds. I am glad things are coming along quickly for you.

    Good progress for sure! One thing you may already have plans on doing but I did notice so will comment. The edges of the wire may need to be sandwiched between a 1x3 or such and the board they are mounted to for two reasons. Right now they are easy for predators to pull out and they are sharp...

    Would a 4ft wide by 8 ft long big enough for a pair of bantams?

    I like the progress so far. I also think it is good that it is tall enough to walk into. I see so many runs that are great height for chickens but a real pain in the back for humans. Nice work.

    Would a 4ft wide by 8 ft long big enough for a pair of bantams?

    I am glad to have been able to help, I am also glad to see you are not in the snow zone like I am. We have well over a foot of new snow so no building outside for me for quite a while yet. Be sure to post pics when you get all set up. I know I really like to see what others have made and learn...

    Would a 4ft wide by 8 ft long big enough for a pair of bantams?

    I think your math may be off. A 4x8 run and coop combo is only 32 sq feet so 3 adult birds maximum at the 10sq ft in the run.

    Would a 4ft wide by 8 ft long big enough for a pair of bantams?

    So the entire space including coop would be 4x8? or is this the run space only? Either way I think you would be ok since they are bantams and not a lot of them in each group. If you can make it larger that is always better. I know those dimensions are easier to work with. Are the three...
