Chicken coop size

14 years ago

I just bought a coop that is 4x3.8x3.75 and run that is 3.8x4. I ordered 8 chickens 5 bantams and 3 standards. Is this enough space for them? There are 4 nesting boxes and a large roosting bar for them. Not sure if I can free range due to the fence we have. It has large spaces between the posts.
