I use that exact same coop as an integration/segregation coop for growing out chicks ready to leave the brooder. I've had as many as six 8week old chicks "growing out" in mine; they are let out after a couple of weeks to integrate into the flock. By then they are too big to live in there full time.

However, during any slack times without chicks to grow out, I leave the door open into the "run" and a couple of my pullets have taken to laying in the nest box in it. (Better than hissing them somewhere, so that's cool.)

Anyway, it's a great, small coop for no more than 3 adult chickens you also allow to range freely outside of the enclosed run.
