How many nesting boxes for 20 chickens?

I got 24 boxes for 50 hens

Thanks, that's very helpful , as usual. I love this site . I'm not sure what we talked about before we got chickens.

I understand that a reasonable ratio is one box for every four birds.

Hi 2chickenrich, I'm from Perry too. I'm up hwy 41, where are you? Nice to know there are other chicken people in Perry. I have 6 nest baxes for about 30 hens, but the silkies just use the floor.
