Hi all, just wondering if our run is big enough for six chickens? It is 17 ft. by 5 ft. They free range most of the day but I know when work starts again in Sept. They will be in there more often. It will not let me add a pic but I'll keep trying. Thank you!

Basic rule of thumb for runs is 12 sq ft per chicken. I can't see the picture, but 17 ft by 5 ft with the 12 sq ft per chicken equals 7 chickens. So you should be good with 6!
