We have 16 chicks and 1 full grown hen. The hen currently lives in a tractor
It isn't clear how many birds can sleep in the hen house, but my guess is 10.
So, here is my question. Will all 17 birds (should all the chicks grow to full size) want to stay in one hen house, even if 2 hen houses are available?
My current plan is to build a second hen house about the same size as the first. Neither would be big enough for all the birds. DW thinks the flock will not want to split up.
