?, how many chickens can I have. 13.
13 is the capacity of my two small coops.
I don't know the limit for my area, but neighbors within a mile of me have 20 to 50.
Myself 10 is perfect. I currently have 7 hens, but started with 5.
I've had as few as 3 and as many as 10. Lost 3 to predators since...
