Hi Dobielover ,
We have 12 girls in 72 Square feet of a chicken tractor, 4' of nesting area made of wood w/ 5 boxes currently being used for laying..then 8'of scratch area. Then for the moment 3 in a tractor thats 40' square feet,, 3' feet nesting box with 5 boxes and 5' feet scratch...
Have a flock of mixed breeds in two portable tractors, 9 months old. Noticed a drop in egg production when shorter days hit in fall and we experienced some low temps (15°).
We put heat lamps (white) in nesting areas at night for warmth.
Started noticing pecking going on to draw blood..had to...
