We have 11 chickens in one of our greenhouses. They're fertilizing the greenhouse and disposing of kitchen scraps and providing 3 or 4 eggs a day (though one day we got an egg out of every one of the nine hens). We're planning on moving them to a different greenhouse soon, probably this weekend. I have plans for a broody box that can house four hens with clutches at a time (with dividers between each nest, of course). We'll see how it works, if we get around to getting it made. Otherwise we'll probably have to use a pet crate for each hen when they start going broody.
