I got a nice 10x12 shed that I was going to convert into a coop
but my husband is in love with it and wants to use for an actual shed
My question, unsure the amt of chickens right now, we HAD 20 ish before they got eaten
1)if the chickens free range what size coop would I have to have
2)if they had an 8x55ft run, what size coop would I have to have
I know the rule of thumb is 4 sq ft per bird but I read that if they have enough outdoor space, I could fit more birds in the coop? I'm not sure I'm remembering that correctly
