Welcome to BYC. Glad you decided to join our flock. I think Nepal would be a very interesting place to visit and I would love to see Mount Everest, the highest mountain in the world. If you can post a pic of your unknown breed on our What Breed or Gender is This? section under the Forum at the top of the page, perhaps our experts there can identify it for you. If you haven't done so already, definitely check out our Learning Center at https://www.backyardchickens.com/atype/1/Learning_Center. There is loads of useful information there. Please feel free to ask any questions you may have. We are here to help in any way we can. Good luck in getting your coop and run built.

The minimum recommend space for chickens is 10 sq. ft. of ground area per bird in the run and 4 sq. ft. of floor area per bird in the coop (not counting the space taken up by the nesting boxes). So a 40 by 10 run is large enough for maximum of 40 chickens.
