Great that you've done that much research.
Tho I think that coop/run is pretty small for 10 birds...
.....even if you could free range, and you're right about the hawks taking a meal right at your feet so to speak.
I highly recommend horizontal nipples over the vertical ones, right from the get go.
If I have a upside-down bottle waterer now already, should I invest in horizontal nipples or wait to upgrade? I figure I will need a watering system overhaul before next winter to deal with freezing.
Kinda sad to hear the concern over the coop size and flock number. But maybe it'll force me to stop with the chicken math. I really don't need more than ten.
