Free Ranging
I have a 4 x 6 raised coop (24 sq ft) with a 4 x 6 area under it for sun bathing (24 sq ft ) The run front run is warm and sunny in the winter months. It connect to a larger run (128 sq ft) with a foyer (16 sq ft) that opens to a large fenced backyard where they free range.I keep 10 - 20 chickens in this set up (216 sq ft) and free range without pressure because its roomy.Sometimes I lock my chickens up for months at a time so predators will move on.
