Ya I went out and measured the hutch and it is 12 feet in length and 2 feet in depth so each room is 3 feet in length and 2 feet in depth. Hw many do you think could fit? 6Silkie Chickens maybe?
Maybe I could prop open one of the 4 doors and put a really wide ramp with a really easy slope so they could make it up and down easily that way they could get to the run for the day

Couldn't thay just use a ramp or somrthing like that. To get in and out of the hutch on their own, or do silkies not use ramps like other chickens.

Ya I was thinking about this too. The rabbit hutch is inside a covered run. So I would let them out in this run for the day and put the up at night, do you think that waould work?
I have a really big breeding rabbit hutch that I dont need any more. I want 2-4 Silkie hens to brood and be pets, I wanted to know if it would work as a coop for them. I would trun some of the wire floors to wood so they could rest their feet. I would also cut the wire that separates each room...
