Minimum size nests for Barred Rocks

Mine are happy in 10" wide X 12" deep boxes. Well, I don't know if they are "happy", but they lay eggs in them.
 
Most suggest a minimum of 12x12. Mine are about 16x16 - WAY overkill - but good airflow for hot summers

Nail some 5 gal. buckets to the wall or 12x14 . In one of my coops its 8 ft x 14 in on my other pens 3 ft x 14 in. On my turkey pen it 3 ft. x 20 in. I don't bother with partitions.
