We have two acres but currently only enough coop room for about 25 standard adult birds in the main coop plus another 6 standard size in our tractor. I plan to sell of half our coming batch as chicks and 90 or so % of remaining chicks as large pullets. I can't get overly attached as we may end up moving this late summer, and I don't want to pay to import more than 6 or so chickens to another state and put undue stress on birds Im not completely committed to.

Your flock is beautiful! I only have 3 pullets at the moment. My coop is rated to 8 chickens but they are comfortable with 3 so ill leave that for awhile. My plan is to build a bigger coop to house 20 chickens :wee
I can't wait! At the moment im just saving up the money for it.
 
Free Range Update:
My girls got to free range this afternoon. I said to my partner I might go let them out so he went up and let them out and they were so happy daddy came and hung out with them.
We were both sitting with them. Hazel getting pats from Jordan of course. She loves him. And Coco was sitting on my knee for awhile.

Almond makes me laugh! She still runs like a dinosaur like 2 week old chickens do. Makes me laugh!

They got about an hour today. Would have liked more but my partners uncle had his dogs here letting them run around so didn't let the girls out encase.

Further to this I should tell you what I have so far.
  • I want cup drinking things connected to a tank that catches its own rain water for the chickens.
  • I want sand in their roosting area. Easy to clean up mess.
  • I want swings and stuff to play on (not sure of ideas of that yet if you see any).
  • I want well ventilated and big enough for 20 chickens and me to sit in there with them.
