I need some help I currently have 2 silkies and 4 barred rocks that are only a few weeks old im trying to decide exactly how to build my coop and run I am planning on using a dog pen I already have that is a 12x12 also have an old dog house that is a 3x5 I would like to use as a coop but unsure about the nesting boxes and a roost. Im thinking the dog house maybe to small I was thinking about building nesting boxes on the outside of the dog house that can be accessed from inside the house with access for me from outside the house will be outside the the run with a hole cut in the pen to access it but how many boxes due I need due i need 6 one for every bird or just four. And were should I put the roost. And how high the dog house is only about 3ft inside height. Any ideas would be helpful gonna build it this weekend.
Thanks
