Under ideal circumstances you should allow per bird.
Inside coop Outside runs
Bantams 1 sq.ft 4.5 sq.ft.
Laying hens 1.5 sq. ft. 8 sq.ft.
Large breeds 2.5 sq.ft. 12 sq.ft.
Minimum 18 inches per bird on roosts. And one nesting box per 6 birds.
A chicken cage is typically called a chicken coop or chicken pen, where chickens are housed and kept safe from predators. It provides shelter, nesting boxes, and a space for chickens to roam and lay eggs.
Depending on the size of the chicken, chickens need from 2-10 sq. ft. of outside space to roam (2 ft for bantam chickens, 10 ft for large heavy breed chickens). The more space you can give them, the happier they will be, and the happier they will be will make you happier with more eggs.
In the springtime, there are a lot of places that you can buy chickens. You can get them at any farm store, most hardware stores, and maybe pet stores I don't know. Check in your area. As for the other seasons, I don't know, maybe a farm somewhere. We get ours from the local " Family Farm and Home" Hope this helped!
Why would you want to?? Most chickens are kept in a coop, with a fenced-in yard attached, so you don't have to worry about them flying away. ~ I agree with the above answer, though some people have chickens kept in a pen in which the chicken can fly over. Also, some like to let their chickens out, and don't want them flying or jumping everywhere (like our chickens). The best way to clip a chicken wing, is to cut the feathers on the outside of the wing level to those on the inside. If you still wanted the picture, I found a good one here (see below). I own a lot of chickens, and other poultry, and this method can also be used on poultry and birds like budgies, and guinea fowls.
You should make the pen circular. A circular pen maximizes the area enclosed by the fencing for a given perimeter length, allowing you to fit more chickens inside. This is because a circle has the largest area for a given perimeter among all shapes.

well first you have to have a chicken pen
Yes, weasels can kill a chicken with their razor sharp teeth and claws. Weasels are known to kill many chickens for their survival.

This is funny because my dad and i bought chickens 3 months ago. But we have a chicken pen and we usually leave the door open until they get in. Because they usually walk together in groups. Or just pick them up 1 at a time and set them in the chicken pen or coup.

Trees can grow pretty much anywhere. They can grow in a chicken pen. You probably don't want it to as it can destroy the pen as it grows. That is, if the chickens don't eat or trample it first. Lol.

You can not "own" a chicken in minecraft. If you hold wheat in your hand the chicken will follow you but it will never belong to you. You could always build a pen to lock chickens in. From there you can help them reproduce by feeding them wheat.
Yes, a chicken's diet will effect the color of the yolk. Things like greens, calendula, carrots, peppers, etc. will darken the yolk. Chickens who free range generally have darker yolks than ones kept in a pen.
Chicks, until they are first born, usually live in an incubator for a while (they are still in their eggs). Then once they get older they may be kept in a small pen, and eventually uprgrade to a chicken coop or pen.
