Thank you for the feedback and questions. I will need to learn more about that.

I appreciate this feedback. Is there a different recommended minimum square footage for if my chickens are likely to be in the run quite a bit? ( I can and will let them roam the yard, but only when I am home to supervise, which limits their outside time quite a bit.)
