Let Your Light Shine ~ Matthew 5:16 🤍✝️
Hey there, I have 3 nesting boxes currently. I’ve heard 4 hens per box. It’s been plenty of nesting boxes for 6 hens, but now I have 13 for sure girls (added 7 10 week chicks), and 3 silkie chicks whom I don’t know the gender of. Let’s assume then it will be 15 hens since the chicks were SR. I can easily convert more space to add another nesting box. Should I do that? Currently they have 3 nest boxes.
BUT, the best boxes are 2’ long and 1’ wide, so a bit bigger than the average box. What do you think?
