ok my coop is on my page except now there is a nest box off the side can i have 6 in there? well i already kinda do but i was wondering if that was ok? the always have access to the run and almost are always free ranging
 
It looks tight but if all they do is roost and nest inside the coop you may get by. Keep the feed and water fount outside and watch for pecking and fighting issues but hopefully they will not develop
 
Cute coop - but I agree that it looks really small for 6 adult birds, so I'm glad to hear that they mostly freerange. If you get snowy winters, I'd watch them carefully, because being cooped up together results in much different behaviors than being out and about all day.
 
Your coop looks long enough, but needs to be deeper, so there's more floor space. My girls love to walk around and scratch through the straw on the floor. My girls also free range daily.
