i think my old suburban would make a fine chicken coop.

14. how many chickens do you think could comfortable roost in this thing?

it carries 9 people comfortably, plus a decent bit of cargo.
i am thinking that i will leave the seats in, so that is a place for a box, plus the back of the seat makes a nice roost. if i put a few more boxes on the floor, half dozen easily, that comes out to about 18 nice size nest boxes. do i need more than i have birds?
or can i get away with fewer? i presume that not all my hens will lay. or at least not all the time.
i could empty out the engine compartment, too, although that would take a little more modification than the passenger compartment. big ass area, tho, and could hold another half dozen boxes. don't have a super clear vision of what that would take, tho.

just trying to get up to the 2 dozen minimum order from mcmurray's. do have a friend that would go in with me, but, well, i want as many chickens as i can get, damn it.
