There are a total of 11 eggs and I do have space for that number of chicks in the coop and run. My friend can take the extra cockerels. From candling it looks like some of the eggs are fertile. Three of the hens have been sitting for a week or more and one just started two days ago. My plan is to move the three with the 11 eggs tomorrow. The upper nesting boxes are about 12-16 inches off the ground. The grow out pen has its own run so the hens will have access to their own run, food and water. The grow out pen also has low perches because that is where I have put two week old chicks from the brooder that is in the house.
