I converted half of the milk house into a layer house and keep a couple dozen in there. They have a 20 by 40 run outside that is fenced sides, top, and trenched three feet down. You won't need to worry about cats once they are bigger. I have to keep kicking the cats out of there as they like to curl up with the hens in the winter.
I usually do a few hundred Cornish cross meat birds a year. I've gotten to where I keep them in my old bumper pull stock trailer attached to a tractor. I pull it out during the day and pull it in at night. You will have to clean out bedding about every other day so get some straw and a big compost heap. Those birds are the nastiest most disgusting things I have ever raised but they taste the very best. Six and a half weeks and you will have 5-6 pound dressed fryers. The breasts are so huge you can cut them in half and have four.
