We built a 30 sq ft coop and 92 sq ft predator proofed run with the intention of 6 laying hens. Due to local purchasing requirements we ended up with 8. The original girls turned the run into an open air coop and free range morning to roosting time. Not sure if they were hot, too confined or just spoiled but they certainly had their own preference.
Always error on the side of more space (and ventilation!) when possible. Especially for when chicken math sets in.
@U_Stormcrow I’m intrigued on the breeds of your birds!
