Questions

Three to six. Chickens are flock animals and need company, and six hens keep a household in eggs without overwhelming a beginner. The breed finder helps you pick which.

No. Hens lay without one. A rooster is only needed if you want fertile eggs to hatch, and many towns do not allow them.

Rule of thumb: a few square feet per hen inside and several more in the run, with a roost bar and one nest box for every three or four hens. Each coop plan states its capacity plainly.
