coop size for orpingtons

[joebryant]

Jessica, I have bbs Orpingtons. Look under my picture on the left, and click "BYC Page". You might find some useful information there.
BTW, Orpingtons are large chickens and do best with a nest that's 16" x 16", but mine are about 15" x 15" with no problem.

How tall are hens? How tall does my nesting box need to be in other words. Thanks so much for the input/info! Jessica

Oh nevermind.. didn't see that someone had responded to that very question! Thanks so very much, Jessica

Hello it is me again! So, I'm rethinking chicken breed because of their size..... any suggestions for a smaller but very friendly chicken. I want some friendly laying hens. Thanks! Jessica

It is always good to see new members. I hope you enjoy the forum very much, and your new birds also! Make sure that your henhouse will have room for new birds later!
