Hi everyone. New here and looking forward to conversing with everyone about our flocks. I currently am building a coop and run and trying to get it finished before I put birds in it. I would like laying hens but am not sure about how much room I have for them in the coop so I'm thinking Bantams would be fun. Cute but could still get eggs-well little eggs anyway. LOL.
 
Hi and welcome to BYC. This link is very useful in terms of determining how many birds can comfortably exist in a given set-up - http://www.backyardchickens.com/a/how-much-room-do-chickens-need

This is a useful link of BYC guides to take a look at announcements-feedback-issues-guides.3 I’d suggest including your location using the guide in that link. You can use this link to contact members in your area - Find your State's thread.

Best wishes

Hello and welcome to BYC! :frow Glad you joined.utu
How big is the coop you're building? Pictures?
Thanks! The coop itself isn't very big-it's one I bought online-a prefab job-but the run is 6'x10'x6'. I live in the county but in a neighborhood-kind of a rural neighborhood and my yard is about 3/4 of an acre so I don't have a ton of room to work with building a big coop just yet. I'm sure over time it will grow :)
