What is the maximum number of chickens in this size coop?

I have 3 bantams and it is too small along with an attached running pen. I wouldn't keep more than 2 small grown chickens. They also don't use the roost that is provided and sleep in the tray or nests upstairs. My hens should be laying next month...it will be interesting if they use the nests for laying eggs. The pen is not designed to be moved or relocated...I've had mine a few months and it is starting to crack and the end door has been replaced with longer screws several times! The coop is made of light material and won't last very long especially if you relocate your birds to new grasses. Also, the nests are getting loose with no use!! From one grandma to another, you get quality with what you pay. I have 3 bantams and it is too small along with an attached running pen. I wouldn't keep more than 2 small grown chickens.

No, the length cannot be extended. You should have no more than three chickens in this coop. It is a great coop, but not for a lot of chickens.

Product's overall dimensions are 76"W x 28.75"D x 44.25"H. There is the "ground" area, a run and an "upstairs" area. Plenty of room for four chickens to live! There is no cleaning tray and the coop rests directly on the grass. The roof opens for easy cleaning and collecting of eggs! I'm sure you would really enjoy this chicken coop. It's been a really hot item for us with only great customer reviews.

A lot! I have put two 9x13 casserole dishes in it. If you used it wider, it could cold maybe 4 whole chickens.

Hi! I would not recommend this chicken coop. I received the wrong coop in the mail and it was only half there... It was red and white and had no instructions or tray or anything. I ended up getting mine at cconly and am very happy with it.

It might be possible but the average sized chickens would be crowded a bit. There also would be not enough clearance of you install a heat bulb for cold winters. If you have plans to use it for Cornish hens or other smaller birds, installing perches could be done easily.I only have two birds residing in this coop, and they are comfortable. I could probably get away with a total of four( I have Rhode Island Red birds)but, then they would be more than cozy and might squabble for space. I found this a good starter coop, but I'm already looking to expand into a larger one.

I have 3 chicken in the barn they have sufficient space to move around. Anymore will be very limiting, >6 will be crowded.

I live in a Cincinnat suburb and usually get your weather 12 hours later. I started my 8 week old chickens in the coop in late November with nighttime weather around 23 degrees. They faired very well and didn't have a problem with 15 degrees one week later. The double wall construction works wonders.

Yes they would I've had this coop for 2 years with a many as 6 chickens at a time. Directions are not very good, use the picture on the front of the box for putting it together. A good starter coop.

Each rack has about 21"x14" of useable space...eyeballing it, I'd say 6 chicken quarters per rack easily, maybe 8 if you stack closer together. MB also sells extra racks.

38 in long by 32 in wide by 10 deep. It holds (comfortably) about 50 chicks until they are about 2 weeks old. Then you may want to start moving them somewhere.

Don't know. But it is much smaller than it looks. This is ok for three chickens maybe four. We ended up putting it on a small rolling table.

I didn't use mine for chickens. You would have to make nesting boxes and I would say no morethan 3 small or 2 larger

I could fit 17 eggs, but my younger hen turkey lays the equivalent to an ex large chicken egg.Hope this helps. Brenda

I mix 3.25oz per gallon to disinfect coop and run, before I applied this to chickens I would go to Yahoo answers.com an expert will answer your question.

I think so - there are slots cut into the back of the "barn" for ventilation and openings in the bottom. We are just starting with the chicken so have not had the chicks in the coops yet. They seem to be well designed.
