I'd say the more you can give them the better  :thumbsup:
As a minimum maybe a third of an acre, but if you've more available then they'll make use of it all..........eventually  ;)

Hi  :wave:

I would say the same, a minimum of third of an acre, but depends on wether you are rearing them on grass or not, if you would like them to have some grazing then you would want double that, split into two and rotate the pens :)
