Help with cooking times for chicken please

I am cooking for a few people tomorrow, so have two chickens, both about 1.4kg each. Can I cook them both at the same time, on what gas mark and for how long?

TIA

20 mins a pound of 45 per kilo plus 20mins about 200C to start with turn down to 180C after about 20 mins. Leave to rest for 20 mins after taking out of oven before serving.

Course you can cook them together. so 1.4kg = about 1hr 20min cooking.

or 45, not of.

It's 20 mins per pound plus 20 mins.

So that's about 1 hour 20 mins. Then 20 mins resting.

yes cook them both at the same time.

First 20 mins at 220 degrees - not sure what that is in gas marks, sorry - then down to 180 for the rest.

Thanks very much. Wans't sure if I needed to alter the time because I was cooking two of them.

Stupily was thinking I needed to doudle it
