I have a 4'w 6'd 4'h coop built with a run off the left side, chicken door at the back left, and the whole front is a door for human access. It is raised 2' off the ground to allow for a larger run area.
The problem is i don't know how to setup the layout for 6 hen, but I need to finish this thing because they are getting too big for the brooder. Please help.
Here are the things I need to arrange (feel free to change my mind if you disagree)
2 roost bars across the width to give them 8' of space
2 nesting boxes Internal or external as I haven't put the siding on so I can make changes pretty easily
3 pvc feeders
3 horizontal nipple waterer (either a 5gal bucket or 2' long pvc pipe) (there will be feeders and waterers outside as well.
I live in the Northeastern US if that has any impact.
Please help, I keep second guessing myself so your help will be greatly apppreciated so i can finish this thing.
