Claire B Posted January 14, 2008 Share Posted January 14, 2008 Hi Everyone, I need your advice please, I am going to buy a cube and have a run built by the same guy who did xScrunchee's and was wondering how many chickens I would be able to get with the run being 15ft x 6ft. Unfortunately due to my circumstances they will in the run most of the time. So what do you think Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Couperman Posted January 14, 2008 Share Posted January 14, 2008 I would say you could manage about ten comfortably in a run that size We have six in the standard cube run and I reckon its too small for that many. It was fine in the summer when they got to play out a lot, but we have had a few feather pecking issues since the weather turned. I intend to build a walk in run too and include an adventure playground to keep them amused, it will mean moving the greenhouse unfortunately. But then we will probably get another four, probably ex-batts Kev. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Claire B Posted January 14, 2008 Author Share Posted January 14, 2008 Thanks Couperman, I was hoping that someone would say 10 would be ok as I would like to get a couple more layers as everyone I know wants some of my eggs and I also would like a couple of ex-batts myself Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
