the chicken coop

[ericmcginn5]

I have a chicken coop that has a 10 foot roosting bar 4 nesting boxes and a 8 foot long run by 4 feet wide how many chickens can I have you think? They are free ranged

How large is the indoor floor space, not counting nest boxes or space that will be taken up by feeder or waterer? Where do you live?

The rule of thumb is 4 sq feet per bird, so 8, but as you are free ringing them, imho I think you'd do ok with 10-12, but you may get other opinions
