I figured the book would be a little interesting for you. Just remember to give them four square feet each in the secure coop area and you'll be fine. Yeah, chickens can do pretty good if they can stay high-and-dry and out of the wind/draft. Naturally on those really cold nights some extra caution wouldn't hurt. The screened area doesn't have to be that big...actually just one side (I'd face it southward). Yeah, you want enough roost for all those birds. Quiet a flock there! Have you ever played them music on the radio? I've heard that classical kind of spellbinds them. A lady setup a radio playing and when she came back they were all standing around the bucket she had the radio sitting on...like they were at a concert!!!? See, another use for solar in the coop!!!
