2, everyone has room. They cram up in about a foot of space usually. I have one 1in of the ground for my hen with arthritis. Yeh I think they settled down. My arthritis hen and 4th in the flock are sharing a hen box. 1st in flock is sitting almost on dixie(this is normal she cuddles) on the perch.
Hay my barred rock has a crazy red comb and will not let anyone go in the coop and sleep. She is screaming. Has slightly dry poop and laid and egg today. What’s wrong with her? My hens need to sleep.
