I bought a very small coop so that I would be forced to only get a few birds. I think two standard size or four bantams would be all it is good for. I really wanted standard size but was hoping to get four chickens (the more the merrier, right?). If it were you, what would you do? (I had chickens from 2003 - 2009 but husband doesn't want them again so I promised only a few. He turned our original, large coop into a storage building for all his stuff so can't use it again.)
