Hi all!
I raised chickens long ago, but am just getting back into it, and am really excited, and excited to find this forum.
I am in central Texas, and am building a coop for 15 chickens. In the run I am giving about 10 ft per chicken.
Now for the Coop, I am giving the 4 feet as required, but I'm wondering if I can go less, because I am building a ground up coop that will be 6 feet tall. I am not sure if by going vertical, and having roosts that also "go vertical" with ramps, if I can reduce my overall floor space.
Any help is much appreciated!
