Bigger Coop or Less Chicks?????

[rebecky1305]

Okay- I am almost finished building the coop. It is 4x4 and was intended for 3-4 hens. But after 3 trips to the farm supply, I ended up with 7 pullets and have 2 ducklings on order

. so my question is- do I thin out the flock before they go to the coop from the brooder or do I make the coop bigger????

(Need to stop going to farm supply LOL

)

Consider who you are asking here. Most of us are chicken obsessed and the answer will be BIGGER COOP!!!! Honestly if you can and want more chicks and you asking the question is telling me you do, build a bigger coop!

Think I was just looking for someone to convince me I'm not crazy!
