How Much Space Do Chickens Really Need in the Coop and Run?
Posted: Tue Mar 04, 2025 1:16 pm
Hey everyone! Im working on expanding my chicken setup and want to make sure Im giving my flock enough space to stay happy and healthy. Ive heard a lot of different recommendations on coop and run space, and Im curious what you all go by.
How much indoor coop space and outdoor run space do you provide per chicken? Does your number change depending on the breed or flock size? Also, do you notice a difference in behavior or health when they have more or less room?
Would love to hear your thoughts and experiences!
