I've recently put up a thread about buying silkies and if I could free range them. I have decided it would be best for them to have a run. I'm wondering for 2 silkie bantams what would the average size run be for them. Thank you
 
Generally, a minimum of 10 sq. ft. per standard size bird is acceptable in the run, though if you can provide more, do so. Personally, for bantams, I would go with a minimum of 8 sq. ft. per bird.
 
I'm getting 2, possibly 3 silkies and my coop is 3ft x 2ft & my run is 3ft x 7ft. it's a little on the small side but I can always expand if there is an issue.
