Hello, I bought 6 chicks yesterday. I need to build a chicken coop and enclose and area for them to run outside. My issue is, I have fairly small backyard and most of it is landscaped. I also have 3 dogs! I have planned on building a chicken tractor so that they could roam in the front yard as well. I can't seem to find any consistent info on how big this coop should be! I have seen many cool ideas and defiantly want to build one with removable sides so I can clean it easier. Can someone please tell me how many nesting boxes I need and how big the inside should be and where to put the perch? It seems no one can decide! Thanks in advance!
