Chicken coop is 8x10 and run is 8x8….how many hens can I fit comfortably?

Thank you for the response…no free ranging as I am in an urban area. They have access to their coop all day as well does that help with square footage?Rule of thumb is 4sq ft of uninstructed floor space in the coop per bird, and 10sq ft in the run. So 20 in the coop, but only 6 in the run. Your general location would help us help you. Will you be free ranging at all? Are you planning on large breeds only?
Depends, where are you located? On very cold windy days, mine will not leave the coop for several days, having space for them to spread out, keeps squabbling down.Thank you for the response…no free ranging as I am in an urban area.
