Introducing hens of different ages.

[Old Ben]

Ehhhh...maybe....it could also just complicate the situation, especially if the cock/erel is younger than a year old...and you are unfamiliar with handling one that may be aggressive.
I'll wait to see size and pics of setup.

Also......

I measured the run and hen house this morning, also got a few pictures. (Note the run isn’t finished and the house is being used for “storage” until everything’s finished.)

The screen window in the coop is able to be shut, I just have it open so you can see. Here’s the exact ish measurements.
Coop.

Width 5 foot.
(From back wall to middle of the hen box.)

Length 71 inch.
(From wall to wall.)

Hight 66. Inch.
(From the tallest point inside to the floor.
(All Measurements for hen house are from inside the hen house not outside it.)

Run.

Width 89 inch.

Length 94 inch.

Hight over 6 foot.


So do you think 10 chickens (give or take one.) would be able to live in here happily? I do plan on letting them free range when I’m able to supervise them.

The measurements for the “run” are from the larger section, the smaller section isn’t included.
