Ithink it's there but only the wife knows for sure.lol!!!!

Never too many questions. We all get to learn from others' replies too.

Every breeder uses differently sized pens, but for my setup and space 3 ft x 8 ft pens that are 6 to 8 ft in height with high perches are what I prefer. I can keep 3 to 5 bantams in a pen that size or a trio of large fowl.
Bye for now,


David
