it's 4 square feet per LF how many do you have

I'm getting four. I think that should be enough for them . Right now I have one roo and four hens. Two in each of the five x five coops and one in a two x four coop. All have runs on the bottom the same size and I let the free range in the evening . I'm sure if it gets cold enough I'll put my heat lamp in for them. How cold should it get be for they need them?

Thanks! Sounds fun.

This sounds like the thread for me!
Hello fellow Michigander!
Thanks!
Yes, I was.


What a nice welcome! Hope I didn't miss anyone's replies.

Forgot to reply. Oops.

None of my Easter pullets have laid yet. I keep rattling the gumbo pot at them, but no luck.
