From my experience...I would say go bigger for your hen house. Especially if you are going to build youself. A lot of people have started with one or two...and end up with 15-20. We started with 2...then 3 more (and a duck). Then 5 more last year...and now we have 6 in the incubator...AND plan to do a second round. The picture is of our hen house and enclosure. It is 8 x 8, with an 8 x 10 run, and seems to work well since we also free range. This was before we got the front, back, and floor done though. :)
