Hello from Vancouver Island

Hello, and welcome to BYC.

LF is large fowl. I wouldn't put more than 4 in that setup. The coop limits it.
Do you live in snow country?

Not snow country. It's like Seattle. Usually it snows once a year, which disappears after a few days.

Hello and welcome to BYC!

You might do some chatting with your neighbors in Canada to see how they do things, I don't know if there are any members on Vancouver Island, but there might be... https://www.backyardchickens.com/threads/canadians-check-in-here.144/

Good luck and welcome aboard!

Welcome to BYC!
Changing weather patterns and all, we had a bad winter here for the first time in years, so don't count on having enough space in a small coop. Please allow 12" of roosting space per chicken.
Cover all or part of your run (& keep food and water there) and either add 1/2" or 1/4" hardware cloth all around your run. A coon can and will grab chickens and kill them by reaching through a 1" space.
Good luck to you!
