Chickens typically need a space of about 1.5 to 2 square feet per bird in the coop for comfortable living, which includes laying eggs. They also require a designated nesting area, with one nesting box for every 3-4 hens. Additionally, providing outdoor access allows them to roam and forage, contributing to their overall well-being.
