Best Answer

In commercial chicken operations, the long chicken houses hold thousands and thousands of birds; in broiler/ roaster programs there may be as many as 20,000 chickens in a chicken house.

Backyard chickens are housed under more humane conditions and given about 3-4 square feet per bird if the chickens also free range; about 10 square feet should be allotted to each hen if they are confined to the house full time.

Usually depends how big your barn is or how many your want. Most barns have 10-15 to start with but it really depends on how many the farmers want

It is impossible to give you a correct answer. Commercial chicken producers vary in size and the number of chickens at any one time will change constantly.

That all depends on the size of the barn and the size of the cows.

How many chickens can live in one chicken house on average how many can die in one day?

Well it depends on how big your chicken house is, and if the house is heated. chickens do not require alot of space, but depending on what you want your chickens for, the happier the chicken, the more the eggs. chickens will not lay eggs when they are stressed. and as far as how many can die in a day, that's completely out of anyones hands. they could all die in one night. do keep in mind though you should expect some deaths, average of about 1 a week. hope this answers your questions.
