Hi Everyone,
I am getting ready to build a new coop for my new flock. I have 2 Cochins, Rooster and hen, 1 Orpington, and 2 Australorps. So I am dismantling my current store bought coop to build one from scratch. The dimensions I am planning are 6 feet long x 5 feet wide x 4 - 5 ft high slope roof. Will be raised off ground with entire area under as an hardware cloth enclosed run. Is this generous space for 7 chickens?
