Birds Per Roost

[enggass]

Can 6 Hens fit comfortably on a 5' long roost?

My BOs like to squish together when they sleep, so in my case, yes.

Our six hens use a roost about that size. The recommendation is a foot for each hen but our hens cuddle and there is space left over. You can see a picture of my six hens roosting on a 4' roost at the site below. Good luck!

My 3 squish together also, they have plenty of room to spread out but they dont.
