I am looking into have a coop built instead of having coops all over the place. I have 60 some pullets/hens right now and would like a coop for around 75 or 100. not totally sure as to how much i will be charged.
So how big of coop for say 75 and 100?? This is more a coop for roosting and laying eggs they have a large pen and get to free range , The winter weather is not very bad and if it snows is melted by that afternoon and they are always out foraging, so they don't spend the winter in there so no need for extra space.
Is there some type of layout/design i should show the guy? Also what type of roosts and how many nest boxes? Im not really sure.....
thank-you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
