The Ives Clan Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 I think 14 girls might be too many. We have one Eglu and the 4 girls seem very happy. I would not go much more than 4 as they will be sleeping in the nest box and some may be on top of each other. It is great to get chickens and we would like more but you have to think of the space you have and there welfare. Our girls also free range all day every day. Have you thought of the Cube? Hope this helps and enjoy life with chickens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
