For heavy breeds, like Barred Rocks or Buff Orpingtons, if you let your chickens out to forage during the day, then the coop that you put them in at night should have at least 4 square feet of space per bird. Thus, a 4â² by 8â² coop would be adequate for about 8 birds.
But I guess summer heat will not be a problem. Now I need to worry how to seal it up better for winter. Coop height depends alot on your design and what you are confortable with. I have seen many smail/ not tall coop that hold a good amount of chickens. These are cleaned from opening the roof or walls. Usually well off the ground to bring the height up.
