Something I need to know.

I’d like to have me 30 hens. Can some give a answer looking like this. Let’s say 10ft by 12ft. Thanks for your help.

What do you mean?
30 hens will need 300 square feet of run space and 150 square feet of coop space minimum.

You can get by with a 10X12 coop (120 sq.ft.) IF you have the nest boxes outside the coop space. You will need 300 sq. feet of run like Black_Cat says. You will also need a bare minimum of 30 linear feet of roosting space.

You could probably fit 30 hens in a 12 foot by 12 foot coop if you added a larger run to it or free ranged daily.

Is this what you are asking for?

They don't make hens 10ft by 12ft. They are more like 10 inches by 12 inches if you ask me. Not counting bantam or large.

Like others have said, you need at least 300 sq ft of run space and 30 linear feet of roost.

I wish I could build something like that but I’m trying to build the coop inside my fenced in yard bc I have neighbors and dogs that people don’t keep a leash on. My ducks and chickens are my babies. Got fainting goats in the works to. With all the farm animals I have you’d think that I lived on a farm

If you can't build that big, then don't get 30 hens.
