“Approximately 100 square feet – 10 x 10 feet is required for raising a small group of 10-12 day old poults. Pens should be planned in such a way that provision is made for enough space for their growth. A good idea is to have a sun porch that is 8 x 10 feet for every 20 large or 30 small turkeys. It should have 1 x 2 inch welded wire flooring with chicken wire sides and top. The porch should be at least one foot above ground level and should have a 10 x 10 foot brooding area. ”
That’s taken from the below website it looks very informative.
You can raise them with less space but it does increase you problems and decreases their gain…but it can be done.
Good Luck!! I raise poultry myself.
