My bantam gal is from foot to booty 4 inches tall. Her booty floof is taller than her head. I want her to utilize the brooder part. But the nesting boxes will be for any of my layers, standards and legbars. Yes floor space I know about, and also my chickens don’t like to jump/fly at a diagonal. Can they yes, and then disrupt the entire flock- it’s not graceful. I had a chicken that decided her roosting spot wasn’t good enough. After 6 months of that being her spot, she decided she wanted to sleep waayyy over in the corner roost. Off she jumped, missed the landing because a chicken was ALREADY there, and tried to catch herself by grabbing the rooster. He got spooked and next thing I knew all the chickens were screaming and jumping around from roost to roost. I had one who literally was hanging onto the wire mesh on the window. Fun times in our fluffy butt hut!
