Welcome to BYC! I couldn't get the link to work.

but I've read here you want a minimum of 2 sq ft per bird inside, bigger birds you probably want a bit more or if you don't have a lot of outside space you'll want more inside as well. Good luck and have fun!

and

from Ohio. I wouldn't do more than two, especially with those breeds. They are large birds especially the sussex.

That sure is a nice little setup. I would not get more than 2-3 chickens for it tho.
Good luck with the chicks when you get them.
