Here's an excellent article on raising chickens http://www.richsoil.com/raising-chickens.jsp. The guy makes a lot of sense. It's a long read. If you don't want to read it, you might be interested in 3 animated videos he has, about 6 or so pages down. Do you have trust in the animal production farms, or do you think profit takes precedence over human safety and humane treatment of animals?
Everything I've read suggests that packing chickens in a tight space is anything but beneficial for the birds. For one thing, the tighter they are packed, the more pecking takes place. Bio-security becomes much more problematic also.
