That's plenty big to let them sleep in, but you may need 2 perches for 5 turkeys.

this is what I have set up for 6 turkeys, 4 laying hens and a peafowl.

Almost done.

Happy birds

Roosts

before building

coop is about 8'x12' and the run is 12'x24'. I have hardware clothe 2 feet up the sides and 1 foot out on the ground to keep out predators. Didn't have that set up in the pictures yet. The top is covered with 2x4 welded wire, but it doesn't show in the pic with the birds well. Completely enclosed.

added a pic with the birds and hardware clothe put up.

To be honest, I'm new to this in a way. I used to help my grandparents and uncles with their birds when I was young. This is what I came up with out of my head. They seem to like it fine. We'll see when winter hits hard up here and they have to be cooped for a couple months at least. We have a long winter in Northern Mn. I have talked to a few locals and they think I have plenty of room. They have even suggested more birds, We'll see how it goes.
